I hope to get time to write an article on this soon. Yes, you need to cut out most of the upper X and rebuild it, and build a new lower X as well. I started the lower X with my original lower X ears and used some 1.5X2.5" box tubing to extend it down a bit, then modded the A500 rear mount to use a PolyU chevy trans mount.
