The 3800 and 4100 have very similar frames, same wheel base, frame cross section, etc. You could take a 1-ton pickup bed and put it on a 4100 but I believe the 4400 used a heavier frame with a longer wheelbase. But, that frame could be ordered as a heavy-duty frame on a 4100, RPO xxxx. There may be a short wheelbase 4400 out there somewhere.

The second "number" in the series indicated the chassis wheel base, so all factory 4400's are the same length...

That heavy duty option on the 4100 was basically just using a 6100 frame.


Liquidated my projects
Now looking for a decent '47-'55.1 3100, 3600, or 3800
