C-Notch help... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have the pipe to C-Notch my frame and I have the plate to box it in.

My leafs and rearend are already installed.

I have it marked where the C-Notch needs to go.
Should I unhook my leaf from the shackles and support the frame on both sides then cut out the notch, weld in the pipe, and then box the area?

Or is it ok to leave the leafs connected and just support the frame on both sides then cut out for the notch, weld in the pipe, and then box the area?

Also, is about halfway up the frame as deep as you want to notch it?
