MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
I compared the back hooks on a Sz. 0 Shiver Minnow and a #3 rap and they are a little bit different style wise, but the wire looked to be about the same thickness on both.

I cut the front hooks off all my raps (about 50 - 60 of them, I have every size) almost every fish I catch has the treble hook in its mouth. I replace all of my trebles with quality hooks and up the size on them.I would feel confident clipping off the rear hook too, if needed.
I always just cut the front and rear hooks off my jigging raps. They always used to get caught on the bottom of the hole. Never have any issues now and you can put whatever treble you want on.
If you can get a long shanked treble or add a split ring between the treble and hook keeper on the bait it will help with hook ups as well - much easier to dehook a fish with that little bit of added length to boot
