That's what a lot of LSC owners have done. It's actually a "X" reinforcement made of thick wall 2"x 2" square tubing. Those that have accomplished its removal have reported back that there's no apparent loss of chassis rigidity.

When I have to remove my tranny it'll be me, a sawz-all and a one-time x-brace...
