Good deal.... Ya, I was also very interested in the link that the other poster put up about the structural integrities of the different style notches. So your post isn't taken as bashing, but only as reference. Now, after looking at that information about the C-Notch, I'm gonna definitely be going on the fact that, so far, I haven't seen anything negative about C-notching. I won't be doing any towing with the truck, just more of a weekend cruiser. So I'll just hope for the best.

I hope no one takes any of these posts from myself or the OP in a bad way, I think we're all just looking for information. That is what this forum is all about.

66-PMD good luck with your project......
