Does anyone know if the grill on the truck and the COE are interchangeable? I've heard too many stories both ways. I need a grill for my COE.
Thanks

I'm not sure but I have a 1-1/2 ton grill I can measure. If you have the outside frames you should be able to swap bars to build a grill.

The 3000 and 4000 series grill bars are the same width but 4000 series are further apart to have the grill taller.

I need to take my cart back there and snag some doors anyhow so i'll get that grill when I am back there and get some measurements.
