Are the frames different

Are the frames different between the f100 and 250 or is it just the running gear.

Not sure if the frame is different, the springs and axles will be heavier with 8 bolt wheels.

There is no noticable difference, in the frames. They can be interchanged.

the frames of a 250 are a little thicker judging by one I had. also check the spring towers they may be a little different. I know 350 frame is noticebly thicker and spring towers are taller to accept heavy rated coils. cabs &front clip can interchange. my 350 the only difference is the back cab mounts are on the outside of the frame rails instead of on the crossmember
