Phoenix Kustoms 4" Under Bed Frame C-Notch - 1988-1998 Chevy/GMC C1500

Chasing a static drop below 7" and need the frame clearance to back it up? The Phoenix Kustoms 4" Under Bed Frame C-Notch is a precision-built notch designed to fit under your 1988-1998 Chevy or GMC C1500's bed and contour exactly to your factory frame rails. If you're running a serious static drop, or even a bagged air suspension setup, this is the notch that gives your rear axle the clearance it needs to travel without hammering on your frame.

Phoenix Kustoms builds this notch with quality plate steel and gussets designed with weld overlap in mind, so you get a strong, clean weld that can be ground and finished smooth for a factory-look install once it's painted or coated. This isn't a flimsy stamped bracket; it's a real fabrication piece built by a shop that specializes in high-end metal fab and performance suspension work.

Because every serious drop eventually runs into shock clearance issues at full compression, Phoenix Kustoms also offers an optional Shock Relocation Kit add-on for this notch. If you're dropping your truck aggressively, adding the shock relocation kit up front will save you a second round of fabrication down the road when your stock shock mounts run out of travel.

Fits: Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra C1500, 1988-1998.

Notes: Requires welding and bed removal for proper installation. Works great for static drops below 7" and is also compatible with air suspension applications.

This is a fabrication-day part, not a bolt-on weekend job. Plan on pulling the bed, prepping the frame, and laying down clean welds. But if you're serious about getting your OBS truck as low as it can go without sacrificing structural integrity, this is exactly the kind of quality notch you want backing up your build.
