Are they different on a Series depending on which side is the drivers side? Sounds made up.

Part 2: What is the difference in a frame for a SIII 109 and a Stage 1 109?

Only difference on the axles would be the steering arms. Other than that series axles are the same LHD or RHD.

As far as the frame goes, the engine,transmsission mounts are different as well as the crossmembers.

The swivel housing is different due to two tie rods attached on one side depending on steering box position and relay. Apart from that, should be the same inwards.:thumb-up:

S3 and Stage 1-I dunno.

the engine mounts, front crossmember, trannt/transfercase, I also think they lack the crossmember at the bulkhead- Find the thread about Jim Young's 109 build on Seriestrek.com or on Expedition Portal- he made his 109 on a galvanized Stage 1 chassis be bought for $1500 from John Dorr.
