That is beautiful! Is that a static drop or do you have air?

Hey guys!
I have a 69 F100 Long Bed that I want to do the Axle over leaf spring swap. Would I have to C Notch the frame to do this?

Crown suspension has a good c-notch kit I just used. Plasma cutter or cutting wheel and a good drill and you can have done in an uninterrupted afternoon.

Has anyone done an axle flip with the comfort ride springs?
