    Does the tnt truss and brackets require it to be removed? If no them I would leave it. If yes then you have to cut it off, just cut carefully around the tube so you don't cut into the tube and then down two of the sides. I've seen it in build threads before.

        it's not in the way, you can just leave it there.
        No worries, I'm not actually back, I'm just reminiscing about the old days.

                I found this today while ordering my tnt truss, you do have to cut back that perch.

                HP 44 & Waggy 44 leaf sprung will require removal of Passenger Side leaf spring pad, shock
                mounts, trackbar mounts. Trimming of Drivers side spring perch and casting for proper truss
                clearance is required as well. Truss placement requires 2 3/8” of the driver’s side casting to be
                cut off completely around the axle.
                Strength of the axle is unaffected due to the addition of the
                truss.

                  Just mock it up and see what needs to be cut.
