Yep, same stuff in both systems. Make sure you test both systems when the "Check Coolant" message pops up every 13,000-15,000 miles

To add to this, if you have the basic info center, this message will never appear.
Check it every 15,000.

Can the frame be replaced from the rear of the cab back or is it one piece to the front?

That's a lot of "stuff" to tear down and reassemble correctly.
