    Exactly what you think. Take out the sawzall and cut away anything that rubs.

    And then take an angle grinder, cut away part of the body mount, and weld up a reinforcement place over the opening you just created.

    Ah. I should have been more clear. I meant no rubbing during all situations, such as at full lock and full flex offroad, with no trimming.
