The common knowledge as I understand it is that if you go lower than 4" in the rear, you should "c" notch.

I totaly disagree. I've dropped a bunch of them, and never notched one yet. Call ECE, the suspension gurus and ask them, they'll also tell you no notch needed for 6 inch rear drop.

Here's a picture of the rearend of my stepside I dropped last year. That's a 6 inch rear drop in the pictures. Look at all the room between the rearend and frame. It never hit even once, even with a 454 engine and turbo 400 trans both in the bed.

Here's a link to a thread where I did a full 4/6 drop on the truck over a weekend.
