Yep as sogone said, simple enough taking the bolts out BUT you might want a hand from someone else to support it or stick some stands under to take the weight.

no need to take the bar off, I unbolted the 3 bolts on the out riggers then used my 4" grinda to cut them off, might have to bash the seems back at the back of the wheel arch, but i took it for a drive around the block and no scrubbing on the 32s
but thats no flexing at all, but bumpy as all f@#k but im still running the stock shooks witch they are full open just sitting there so next thing is, is to weld the shock mounts on
Oh and ill have to custom mount the bull bar, there is no way it can hold with just the center bolts, the bar is moving up and down
