Installed the Western Chassis C Notch - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Install went great. With the use of an air grinder and sawzall, I was able to cut away quickly and neat. Took awhile to drill the holes. Passenger side brake line had to be moved out of the way but very minor. Funny how the bump stop takes up most of the c-notch clearance, I doubt the axle will get that close anyways but if I lowered it more, I would probably need a smaller bump stop.

I like how this notch is thick and wraps around the top of the frame. I applied zero rust of the frame area before putting the notch on. Looks like the notch plate will actually strengthen that thin area of the frame.

Digging the bike with the squeeze horn!

Looks like it would at my house, kid riding around me being anything but helpful and getting in the way. Then, after the job is done, all they say is "WE got it fixed mom!"

LOL, and of course it gets left there.... not back in the garage where it should be. I guess it's my responsibility to put her things away too. But I don't.... because I am the brother not the father LOL
