The compound curves of the frame does not lend itself to being a 'kit'.
The main reason I took the route I did was @ the time this started, nobody offered a 'small' step-notch. I don't plan to plant the frame rails & didn't want to step the bed floor (and still wanted bed depth). The bolt-in c-notches could have worked for the heights I planned but they're not engineered for the additional rear-end set back that I now have.
After discussion w/Nathan @ Porterbuilt, he now offers a 'small' step notch that basically allows the notch to be the entire depth of the original frame w/the 'step-notch' portion being directly above it. IIRC, they're 4" above the top of the original frame.
The ones in my pics are 2.5" above the original frame rail which yeilds 4" rail height above the c-notched area (which is only .500" less than the original frame rail height).
