    I thought they were, but someone told me today that half ton and wheat truck front clips are the same. Any idea?

    If the truck is a 1 1/2 ton like most larger farm trucks are the cab is the same but the fenders are larger to accept the larger tire diameter.

    In addition to the wheel well being larger, the front of the big truck fenders are longer and will not work with the lower grill trim of a pickup. Also the bumper notches are in the lower grill trim on a pickup and on a big truck the bumper notches are in the fenders
     

  5. The pickup fenders fit only the 1/2 ton pickup and panel 112" wheelbase. 3/4 ton and up fenders are different.
