[Grandpa's CST]

IMO these type of mods are all about the look of the truck. As a collision shop manager with 25 years in the business and an owner of a C notched truck I accept the fact that my truck is modified and should not be used in the same fashion as an unmodified one was originally intended, I also believe there is no way the C notched frame would react the same as an unmodified version in a rear impact collision, just lowering or raising a truck effects the impact (bumper) heights of most cars/suvs on the road. These things are personal choices and consequences of any modifications should always be considered. Good topic! I still like to look of a bagged C notched big wheeled truck.
