Got my djm Monday and now I'm in the process of planning out the notch. I'm not sure if I should just go with the djm supplied bolt in notch or have a friend make the semi circle one like this picture.
Few options
I think the djm notch will be fine and I'd add some plate to the back side of the c channel and maybe a x brace.
The semi circle I'd do would be a little bigger then the pic and I'd want to put in the djm supplied bumpstop. Backplate and brace
Or do a full weld in notch same as the djm with back plate and brace.
I've read quite a few threads here where people do not like to weld to the second gen frame but I don't have a issues with it as long as it's done but my friend or another qualified welder. Me and all of my friends weld all over our tacos . Everything is welded on.
