I have a Western Chassis C-notch and today I LOADED my truck with 40 cinderblocks approx 40lbs each=1600lbs!!! and the truck was laying on the axle all the way home. These notches are freakin' strong!

I always liked the DJM kit and might end up going with that.

And im going to be runnin my 16" stockers till I get money for rims and Mcgaughy's is for 17" only spindles. But I'll be getting the 17" stockers. I saw a tire shop on Spencer that has them Im going to stop by and see how much they want for them.
But anywho? Thanks for the info Gene!!!

The mcgaughy 4/6 has 2 different spindles. One for 17" wheels and bigger. And one for stockers.
Both kits are good. Also, you will have too put a c-notch on a 4/6. It is even required on a 2/4 drop(if hauling).
