Not sure about faster but a little heavier.
Got back to this project. A 7 inch cutoff disk made a clean separation of the old base. I blocked one end of the new members and use a machinist jack and precision level to get them flat. The carriage was then positioned and angle plates clamped to the uprights so I could use the level to get them plumb. Used turnbuckles and chains for the final adjustments.
Back in one piece.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
