I recall seeing this discussed somewhere - I'm looking at a number on the driver outside mid-frame location that is not the VIN. What is that number, is it just a production sequence number? Or is there some format to it that indicates chassis length/type?

Re: Chassis number (not VIN)
The 2509XXX is the frame part number.

Got it, FRAME not chassis. I looked in the parts manuals online but don't see the number there, but I'm guessing 559 must be for the 114" Utiline

Re: Chassis number (not VIN)
Do you have a SERT number for your frame on the SERT sticker? That does seem weird that it isn't listed in the parts book.
Re: Chassis number (not VIN)
The SERT 'plate' lists all the options for a CSS (console, carpet, seats) but that's it. The frame VIN number and the door jamb VIN plate number match. The 'build tag' says WB 114.

Re: Chassis number (not VIN)
The ute chassis is 3.25" shorter on the @#% end than a wide bed chassis. That may be the diff.
Re: Chassis number (not VIN)
I'm just a 'geek' for information like that, thanks!

Re: Frame number (not VIN)
Interesting to note that it looks like your frame was painted black from the factory?
