Beats me about your 3500. If it is a 4x4 it sits pretty high so I'd think it would have them but maybe the crash testing requirements are different for higher GVWR vehicles. If you bought it used,...

So, what does the owners manual say? I can't find anything in my '03 manual on the subject. The instructions with the winter cover say to consult your owners manual - not much help in my case.
