I'm pretty sure the springs are wider on a 3500.

They should swap provided they are both 3" wide. some light duty trucks were 2.5" wide rear springs.

All the #8800 and up springs are 3 inches wide both 2500 and 3500. If you can't find a set of one ton springs there is alway the add a leaf option. Just did that on mine, not much diff in the ride

I read on here one time that the 1 ton springs actually ride better then the 3/4 ton. Can anyone verify this?
