The springs between my 2500 and 3500 look identicle. They should all be interchangeable.

That is a great idea for hauling more.

My 2500 seems to be sagging a little so I thought this would fix it and be able to haul a little more like you said. I was also told that the 1 ton springs actually ride better they the 2500. Nore sure if this is true??

Like I said, the springs in my two trucks are identicle. You can get different spring packages, some have overloads, some don't. The springs in my 2500 are heavier than in a friends '95 3500.

A 3500 with smoother riding rear springs?? I guess the separate helper springs would do that after thinking.

I thought about air bags but not sure if they will interfere with my B&W Turnover hitch?
