1500 leveling kit

Will a leveling kit specified for a 1500 second gen truck fit a 2500 second gen truck?

Good question and to tell the truth Im not sure. I have one of each of these trucks and The 1500 has the leveler on it. Its a Rancho kit and my 4x4 shop says they are different. Mine consists of a spring cup style spacer and replacement lower arms...Extended shocks are extra. They quoted me 289.00 for the 2500. and another 110.00 for the shocks.

I was looking at a leveling kit on e-bay that is used and specified for a 1500. The price is good but I wasnt sure if the spring diameter on the 1500 is the same for the 2500.

yes, they will fit thru 1500-3500 4x4, 94 all the way to the new 2500-3500 trucks { 02+ 1500 trucks had torsion bar front ends} there is a different size for the 2x4 trucks though. Everyone says not to run the rubber spacers only steel for our truck because of the wieght of the engine, but I got a few friends who run them with no problems other then sag.
