McGaughys c-notch
I'm looking at buying a mcgaughys 4.5/6" drop for my truck and I am wondering what the c-notch looks like. I've come across three different pictures for it between a few websites, here they are...
PIC 1 PIC 2 PIC 3 I think it's the first one, but I just want to make sure of what it is before I order it.

Re: McGaughys c-notch
I kinda thought that on first glance. I knew the frame rails of our trucks were straight.

Re: McGaughys c-notch
Are the frame rails different on a c10? Might be a dumb question, just wondering?

Re: McGaughys c-notch
I would but I have neither the tools material or patience. Just gonna buy a bolt in kit and weld it in then weld a backing plate on for support

Re: McGaughys c-notch
Find just the notch from one of the manufacturers, get the part number, then search the part number at either Summit or Jegs. I bought mine from Stylin Concepts, could have saved money going somewhere else.
