They came with heavier front springs but other than that I don't think anything else.

Ive heard people say thicker frames, but that might be another "wecrash" thing.

Bahahahaha if it was a rumor that got around from missouri it's a doubled frame front stub... buddy destroyed alot of cars with all his "DESEIL WAGON". No different but can get by your rules with a few things done. Also propane cars get extra too...

The rumor I was told was that the diesel framed cars were like a 98-02 Ford compared to a pre 97 Ford. My buddy has a diesel car he is building right now and we can't find any differences in his compared to my caprice.

The only difference you might see is the front springs. They might be slightly heavier due to the weight of the engine. Honestly, I can't tell you the difference between a gas 350 or a diesel 350, but from other experiences, I'm guessing the diesel 350 weighs a bit heavier.

I have a diesel Olds wagon. Haven't seen much of a difference. Frame looks like it may be a bit thicker between the firewall and a-arms, but I'm thinking that's just an illusion from a bad factory weld job. I can take a pic if anyone is interested.
