If the frame is straight above the centerline of the rear axle they you can use a universal notch kit, there are a lot of those....out there.......

Re: c-notch

You can easily trim the Welders Searies notch kit to what ever depth you need. This is one place I don't think I would want a bolt on item.

I agree! that seems scary to me sort of like a hinge.

I have had a bolt in c-notch on my 2000 GMC for 11 years now with no issues . I also tow a car trailer a couple times a year with no problems .
