Damn you are making some good progress! Its looking great. Looks like you know what you are doing but I can't see why you wouldn't notch it now? Beds already off why mess with it later? Anyway I'm liking the project!

Thanks man! What it comes down to is I need some time to research and design a c-notch that will not weaken the overall strength of the frame. I am towing a 10,000lb. boat with 800lb. of tongue weight and I really don't want any problems. If I find the axle bottoms out then it will be next winters project where I will design my own c-notch in CAD software and then run some structural analysis against the design to make sure the frame doesn't lose any of it's integrity!
