Use a grinder and cut the weld, you will see the seam start to be visible between the perch and the tube, then just knock the perch off with a hammer... It's easy just more time consuming then anything, unless you go crazy you won't hurt the axle tube

If you cut the tube, weld it back up. It's only metal.
