Question C-notch on a 3/4 ton

I somehow remember somebody who put a c-notch on a 3/4 ton saying he had some issues with fit due to the frame. I think it was somebody from California. Any info appreciated.

I used the CPP bolt in notch on my 3/4T frame and had only minimal issues as fars as fit.

Re: C-notch on a 3/4 ton

do you remember where the problem areas were? maybe something that we can prepare for before we start the notch?

Re: C-notch on a 3/4 ton

I think there were just a couple extra rivets to drill out. The only real difference between a 1/2 T frame and 3/4 T frame is the extra bracing in the rear part of the frame, at least as far as I know.

* This applies to a 3/4 T frame with TRAILING ARMS not leaf springs.

I put one in my 70 3/4 ton. CPP brand. No issues at all. I welded mine in though. Use some big c-clamps to hold everything in place.

Re: C-notch on a 3/4 ton

I have another question for you guys. I have an Eaton HO52 rear end, will one of those adjustable panhard bars work with it?
What about shock relocator kits?
