57, I did cut the front cross member in half, plasma cutter worked great. I removed about 1.5 inches of material. I did not cut the center link, however I did take the tie rod adjusters off and remove about 1/4 inch of material from both sides and also did the same thing on the tie rods them self with plenty of area left for adjusting and securing.

Here is a closer pic of how I mounted the gear box. I tried to keep everything close to the measurement I took before pulling everything off.

Idler assembly with no spacer as I am not sure it will need one, if I am wrong hopefully someone will chime in and let me know.

Forgive my welding job, not my best work but is solid.
