Jacqson Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 i looked up seems the obs truck is a bit more heavy duty has more towing capasity. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Up until the introduction of the 2500HD(9200GVW) in 01 the highest GVW available in the 2500 series 8 Lug SRW was 8600lbs. GM/Chevy had a 3500 Dually that they called an HD with (I think) a GVW of 12,000lbs but I'm pretty sure it only came in 2WD. They were distinguished by having a larger/longer fascia below the grille which also made the front bumper lower compared to the regular trucks.

My 95 SRW 3500 has a GVRW of 9,900 and these trucks were available up to 2000.

THey cam out with the 9900 rating when they brought back the SRW 3500 a few years ago in a NBS truck after not making them the first few years that the NBS was out.

(RPO C5B) And yes from the factory they were only available as a 2WD unless you had Monroe truck equipement convert them to 4WD.
