That's good to know and indicates the frame revision was a running production change and not a model year specific change...unless the frame of your truck was possibly swapped out for another one in its lifetime.

Definitely the original chassis on mine. The frame stamp matches the VIN, and it was a 68,000 mile truck when I got it. But yeah, I'd bet it was a progressive change.

Thanks for confirming that, I'll make note of it for placement in the application technical notes.
