It wouldn't hurt to do a notch, Just in-case of pot holes, Or most importantly hauling something. I had a flip kit for my 78 and I sent it back, I just found it easier to add shackles and remove 1 leaf spring from the spring pack(I removed the bottom). And got close to around 4.5" the rear. A notch does around 5" so from what I heard. I seen some people just shave some of the bump stops and that was about it. They bottomed out some.
