I was kinda thinking the same. Only thing I can think of is maybe he's not a fab shop, just a parts supplier. Or else some metal suppliers only sell full lengths which isnt worth bringing in to make a set of notches if you don't have a use for the rest.That would make sense. I'm just curious. If you really need one I'm sure Doug @ streetissuecustoms could build ya one. He uses them in every truck he bags, and is getting pretty quick at fabbing them together.

yea, doug's the one who suggested i use them a while back.. i like them a lot better too

They are definetley the way to go on C channel frames. 8 piece works nice on boxed frames like toyotas though.

I posted this up before.

To figure out the cuts angles for your saw:Take the inside angle of your notch (in this case 110). Minus that angle from 180. (so in this case you get 70) Divide that number by 2. So in this case set the blade on your chop saw at 35 degrees.

I could build 1, but im not charging him very much to bag his truck, so therefore i want to get all the bag brackets, link tabs, notch, etc.... So i can knock it out quicker. I build all my stuff, but im not on a time limit or getting paid. I know it dosnt take but a couple hrs to build one, but by the time i get my angles & cut it out i could already be putting it in.

Here's the notch i built for my taco....

i would rather use a 2x3 notch then a pile of shit universal 8piece that is ALWAYS to wide. i used ssc 8piecers back in the day and they fit a ton better. idid an 8piece notch on a hard body a month or so ago TOOK forever, last 2x3 notch i did, had it done in 2 hrs(it was a channel frame, but whats 30 min more of cuttin on a box frame)....just my

I'm probably just gonna backhalf everything from now on..

i just did one on my chevy, but 2x4 and it was done in a few hours, notching(not too keen on the butt welding idea, at least not without plates on the outside) welding and installation.
