That looks like an awefully big notch to me.

Nice work, want big wheels, want to lay frame, you want a big notch.

I have a few questions! I am about to start on my back half. How tall is your notch? What are you going to do about your driveshaft and the new crossmember. Oh and what size tube did you use for the frame?

thanks, Brad www.gaugemagazine.com

Brad,I went 18" to the bottom of the 2x3 square tube,but the reason I did that was to clear my 22's.it all depends on what size wheel and tire combo you run.as for the drive shaft,I'm going to use a one piece with a slide at the trans. In the pictures you looked at I didnt cut out the hoop part of the crossmember.I have more stuff to do like cap the pipe ends and diamond all the joints.I'll post more pics soon.THANKS FOR LOOKING!
