Frame size question....2500 VS. 3500

I contacted a company about their nerf bars...MAAP Challenger tube steps, and they said that they would only fit the 1500-2500. Said the 3500 has a larger frame and they wouldn't work for my 3500...any thoughts on this?<br> I though the main difference was the springs? I'd like to order these ASAP....thanks!

I can't speak for the 1500, but the 2500 and 3500 or the exact same. I put the MAAP nerfs on and they fit perfect. Took 15 minutes to install. Solid as a rock.<br><br>BEHRMAN

I sent you a PM but the fram has nothing to do with the installation. All of it hooks to the body.

they will fit.they fit very nice also and are very strong.what is nice is they dont hang down low,fit real close to the rockers so the rocks stop tearing up thr lower part of your doors.good luck!
