Default frame side lca brackets

in the process of installing some iro frame stiffeners. front and mid. the po cut the brackets half way. Is there an easier way to take these off fully, besides grinding them off?

Saw and torch can only take off so much. More so want an idea on how to get off the spot welded portion on the bottom side.

but at least now i have a plasma cutter that might be able to get more off before i get the grinder out.

what a job tho...
