Not to hijack but does anyone have a 4" drop in the rear without a notch and do the axle tubes make contact with the frame at all while driving? I want to lower mine 2/4 and didn't know if I should notch it.

The truck could use a notch, but bouncing on the bumper I couldn't get the rear to hit the modified bump stops. But if I were to put anything in the bed and drive it would probably hit.

A cut off wheel put an X in the rivet and an air chisel popped it out. Was cake. The lower's were actually harder!

"No buck" has 4" drop springs in the back without a notch. Haven't had any problems with it.
