I'm wanting to drop the rear only of my 73 shortbed using the 2" drop shackles. If anyone has done this can they post a pic of the notch they had to put in the bed rail?

To add to the pic, smoothandlow84 has the 56in leafs, if you have the 52in leafs the shackle will be directly below the bed brace. You will need to cut it the same as the pic but just a bit wider.
