Just make sure your axle is center of the notch... If you're going to install a link setup I'd install the link setup first. I'm sure you won't need to make a pendulum to find the center if the axle is against the frame already lol...

If you need universal notches that are pre-made, I got you covered...
 
Just build the notch with the frame still in one piece.Start welding it in.Then cut out the part that you dont need.Weld in the plate to sure it up good.That way the frame will stay nice and square.
