Re: c notch 7" drop

Without cutting the bed floor,... the standard McGaughy's, Belltech, Western Chassis, DJM bolt in c-notch is about all you can do.
That should be enough for a 7" rear drop.

If you want to cut the floor,... a large step notch is the answer.
They are mostly a weld in notch,... but companies like Porterbuilt Fabrication and KP-Komponents, do make a bolt in version.
