Default Rear Bumper/Frame Question

Hello,

I'm looking at cutting the rear frame off behind the cross member, flipping it, and welding it back on. WIth this I'd be keeping the tow hitch attached. In my mind I'd think this would help with departure angle. I'd also weld on some tubing to wrap around the body a little bit and use this as my rear bumper.

Anyone done anything like this before or see any issues with it? I'm looking for any and all opinions!

Thanks.

Brut4ce cut up the rear end you'd have to check out his thread and see if it's what you're looking to do.
