I'm cutting a GIANT NOTCH in my 4x4 Drag Truck Chassis

to help the 4wd drag truck build achieve a proper stane, we need the back end to sit a little lower than the stock frame rails will allow, which means its time to install a c-notch! There are a few different notch styles on the market, and I refuse to install a bolt-in notch which means it's time to get out the welder. This drag truck will be powered by a 535 cubic inch Gen 7 big block chevy with a massive turbocharger, and should produce somewhere around 1,500 horsepower when its done. We're shooting for an 8 second 1/4 mile goal, and with the C-notch complete, the rolling chassis is nearly 100% complete.

LT, thank you for continuing on this adventure. I’ve been watching you since the show and appreciate what you do. I’m a close to retirement, but planning on getting myself my retirement toy before I pull the plug. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us. It’s definitely motivating me to get something sooner rather than later.

Remember to cut the bed rail off on the bed where the underbed c notch sits it’ll get in the way and you can’t bolt up the bed not sure if your even gonna have a bed but letting you know before you do

@kanakamaoli9642 Год назад

LT, this is just my opinion, I would not trust any C-notched frame running high horse power with leaf springs. If it was 4 linked, I would be good with it. All that torque all that twisting, the weight transfer just looks like disaster to me. Just my opinion. Thank you for the videos, sir

@theperson7718 Год назад

Too bad you didn't know from the start of the 4X4 conversion part of the project that you were going to just do another whole truck. You could've saved yourself maybe 200 plus pounds of weight going for a regular cab short box like your COPO truck instead of an extended cab.

@braydengilkey Год назад

@plepgeat Год назад

@bobqzzi Год назад

That Continental is gorgeous. The back part of that frame is going to really flexy- C notch kit is 1/2 the depth of the original frame.

@KoaGuy Год назад

Its probably just as strong if not stronger being it is fully boxed compared to the factory C channel.

@Bill_N_ATX Год назад

Well, depending on how fast he wants this truck to go, he will have to run bars back to the rear of the truck for the roll cage. That will strengthen the frame a bunch.

@robking9857 Год назад

I'd box the frame just because I am OCD... LOL! But unless he is gonna be pulling the front tires a foot off the ground and turning 9-second quarter mile ETs, not gonna need it. The down bars for the roll cage will stiffen it all up anyways. As well, the C-notch is spot on. Damn good job and he installed the two cross members for the fuel cell that are way overkill. That frame is solid as is. Add a cage all done and he won't have any issues.

@LawrenceTolman Год назад

its the little things that make all the difference

@Sir.VicsMasher Год назад

Might be cool to shorten the wheel base and use a 5.5' bed or modify yours with a short bob to cut down on extra mass. It could look like the full size late model Blazer they never made if it had a shortened shell on the bed.

@Drunken_Hamster Год назад

I already suggested this to him and he said no. Huge loss IMO, especially since he wants to get another body for it and keep the ugly truck as is, but oh well.

@shakenfake Год назад

@@Drunken_Hamster That is exactly what I have been saying this entire time. Love LT but I completely disagree with the direction he is going right now. His channel and still going to support though. Although I do agree with sticking with the extended cab. Way cooler than a regular cab lol

@steve6992 Год назад

Be careful working around that Continental with welding and grinding, you can easily ruin the glass with grinding Sparks, I'll bet it's hard to find glass for that car

@jessethompson1545 Год назад

Lt, way off topic. But did you all ever run project low n slow in the 1/4 after the flywheel bolts backed out? I was curious as to how quick it was.

@LawrenceTolman Год назад

No, unfortunately we never got the chance to get the truck back to the track after that.

@abnpthfdr2934 Год назад

If I remember correctly, the process for this C-notch is different than when you did it for the Ugly Truck. Wasn't it? Is it a different kit or you did you just try a different way of doing it? Either way, awesome job!!!

@LawrenceTolman Год назад

same exact kit actually, but just wanted to try a different method of installing it

@BBCMONTE34 Год назад

I’m confused. I thought the back tubes got moved because you were wanting a stock looking frame.

@LawrenceTolman Год назад

Moved em to fit the fuel tank and wanted an oem look, but also need the functionality of a c-notch

@BBCMONTE34 Год назад

Just seems like two opposing things happening at the same time. Trying to maintain a stock look while notching the frame right next to it to make it not stock and definitely not look stock. Not bashing at all, more so pointing out that I would not go through that labor to attempt at maintaining stock look if I was notching it which is obviously not a stock look. Could’ve save some serious time I’d think.
