power plant frame removal.

Just a quick question see if anyone has done this when using, for example, the banzai diff brace and a similar gearbox brace?

What is your reason for wanting to remove it? Anything aside from weight?

I don't think those braces could support a stock driveline. The PPF cracks all the time and that's a big hunk of metal.
