Install a c-notch ....
I'm in GREAT need correct the previous-owner home-made c-notch in my 71 since I'm constantly bottoming out when I hit any "lips" on the street or holes.
How hard is it to install with the bed on -- OR should I remove the bed ? Also, can I cut the frame w/o a plasma OR will a cutting wheel be fine ? Finally, should I just bolt and weld / just weld / or just bolt ? Thanks for any insight !!!!!! Ev

I cut mine with a grinder/cut-off wheel and a saw-zall. I think the instrucitons say it can be installed with the bed on but it would obvioulsy be easier with the bed off. Mine is plenty stong with bolts only.
