    Heys guys,

    I'm looking for some grille parts for my 54 3100. I have found a farily nice grill from a 3600 advertised but I'm not sure if they are the same size. Do any of you know whether a 3600 grill will fit the 3100?

    Thanks

    Hi. Sorry to say that the 3600 wouldn't work. Wish I knew you where looking..had a nice chrome grill that I sold recently....Will keep my eyes open but they are getting harder to come by...I did hear a rumor that CD would have the 54 grill to sell late this summer...Will wait and see.

    Thanks for the info.

    I really want the top bar and the driver's side center bar. I think I bid on a primer top bar that you had on Ebay, but was out of town when the auction closed and couldn't get online to re-bid and make sure that I won it.

    Who knows how long I'll be looking now.

    Oh well,

    Thanks again,

    Mark K

    The guys at truckandcarshop.com in Orange CA have complete new (repro) 54 grills. I've only seen their chrome version which looked good but was expensive, they may also have steel ones. Be worth giving them a call or better yet ask CD (or is it CP now?) if they will be getting these as well.

    I thought that a 3600 was a 3/4 ton which I would have thought to have the same sized grille. I thought the bigger grille was in the 4000-5000 series trucks and even then, cabs were the same just larger fenders and grille.
