If you have the storage space, I'd save all of it as somebody might want it. Once its gone, it can't come back.

I've removed all the mounts and brackets from a couple of them thinking you never know when you might need one.

And I've kept the sides and crossmembers because I like reusing stuff, and am always needing another piece of steel for something.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...
