[DeTomaso] What mods are required to use one piece coolant tubes?

[Mike Thomas]

Why not just cut the pipes?  Seems it would be much easier than all the
other mods you've mentioned.  I have two piece tubes under the car: the
front sections are about 1/2 to 1/3 the length of the rear.  When removing,
you have to disconnect the radiator pipes/hoses, but then both lower pipes
can be removed without any other issues.  This was instrumental in being
able to  get to Reno this year as I had to pull and bead the pipes three
days before we left.

It looks like one or more mods are required to be able to install one piece
coolant tubes under the car:
 
Making the rear tube support removable;
 
Making the under engine cross member removable; and/or
 
Making the under engine parking brake cable bracket  removable?
 
 
Comments?
