Bolt in C Notch.. Does it exist?

Anyone have verified usage of a bolt in C notch for a dent? did an 8.8 axle flip in the rear, not sure what, well, works.

Yes it does.

Contact Fatman Fabrications whose bolt-in, axle flip kit fits 65-79 F-trucks.

That would work if

A. I used a 9" instead of an 8.8
B. I didn't already cut perches and flip.



$600 is a bit hard to swallow when I won't use 3/4 of the kit.

Airbagit offers one, anyone use that?

Then just call them for the C-notches.

But since you're this far along, why not just get some plate and piece of 6-inch steel tube or pipe and weld it up?
