[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 427968, member: 13599"] why do you want to replace it ? when people weld things together, they expect that project to last forever. unfortunately, they don't. in your case, it will take some speciality tools to do the job. like: hand-held pneumatic metal hacksaw, angle grinder with cut-off wheels, pneumatic die grinder, chisels, hammers and the skill/knowledge on how to do it without causing so much damage it must go to the shop to finish the project. and - all those braces and corner caps that you cut loose or remove must go back as they were originally. it can be VERY overwhelming and frustrating if you do not have the basic metal working skills and tools to tackle a complex job such as yours...... it can also be very time consuming and labor intensive. personally, I would take it to a metal fab shop for an estimate then make your decisions from there.
