The whole beam would have to be removed I suspect… I’ve been under my car enough times to see the set up! Obviously the concern would be rust …. Unless your car isn’t that bad in your climate..

I have now done the job, a lot easier than i anticipated, hardest part was un-doing the nuts / bolts, after that it was only around 2 hours to replace the rear beam, rear shocks, brake shoes, wheel cylinders, and hand brake cables.
