The '54/'55-1st 1/2 ton frame is different from 1953 in the following ways:

- no frame cross bar for a rear transmission mount/support

- the frame cross bar for the rear motor mount is a different shape and location (with six rivets instead of four)

- frame side members are lower on the rear of the frame (lower platform to ground height)

- rear spring axle-bumper is in a different location

- different and lower rear cross member

- different fuel tank mountings on Panel Truck, Suburban, and Canopy Express
