C-notches?

Is there a place to get C notches for a 48, I am going to do the axle flip when I put the new rear end in and am wondering if there is a place to get them or if you have to fabricate them?

Try www. hot rods trucks. com (take out spaces) You'll have to call them as they don't have an online catalog. Great guy to work with. Just him and his wife are the business. Call 1-800-236-0046

Later,Bill

are you looking for a c-notch or a tower notch? c-notch is usally just for extra clerance a tower notch is for almost laying frame with airbags. you can go to a steel supply house and buy a 6" diameter pipe 2" wide and cut it in half. now you have your c-notch. that should cost you about $20. a tower notch kit will be about $100.

make sure to box the frame for more strength.
