volusion - With jquery remove both a span and the next 2 characters -

i trying remove element volusion page don't have access large parts of code. can remove stuff using jquery, there elements outside of span can't rid of.

<span class="pagetext_l329n">quantity in stock</span>:6<meta itemprop='availability' content='instock'> 

i can use

$("span.pagetext_l329n").remove(); 

to rid of "quantity in stock" section, :6 doesn't have own container. parent div sitting in has lot of other stuff in don't want touch. there way remove span , following several characters? or separately select :6 , remove without container?
