Re: Pipe Notch
I am in the process of attempting that style of notch. I will post some pictures when I hopefully accomplish the task.
It's being done to a 68 so the frame rails are quite different in the area that this notch is done at. It's not a nice straight shot as shown in the FEA but I beleive is doable. I am also using 4" x 2" x 0.25" instead of the 3.5" x 2.5" x 0.25" shown. It should give me about a 4" drop when I am done. Regards, Adam |

Re: Pipe Notch
lakeroadster, I liked the link with c-notch strengths compared to stock. It would seem to me that once the bed is mounted and bolted up, the frame would have more support?.... Are your % figures with the bed on or off? thanks
