I installed the western chassis kit on mine... 4/6 with c-notch. Excellent product! I only installed the c-notch because it came with it. If it did not come with the kit, I would not have installed one because it clearly wasn't needed on my truck BUT it is nice to know it's there if I want to go lower or weigh down the bed.
