Visual difference between .....

Chevy and Dodge buddey bucket frame?
I've been getting confused by some of the pictures on the board.

Was hoping someone could post 2 pictures: one of chevy and one dodge.

Thank you

Re: Visual difference between .....

The easiest way to tell is that the Chevy frame has a center support that bolts to the floor, that the Dodge lacks. The front support tubes are straight on a Dodge frame, and indented on a Chevy frame. I do not have a pic at the moment, but I am sure someone will chime in with one soon.
