I know it is for mostly 2500 and 3500 but would all I need to do is just the axle swap to make it work?

Are you looking at the 3" or 6" I believe the rear leafs won't work since they are 3" and yours are 2.5". You can just put the hangers and mounts off a 2500 onto your frame and then the 3" leafs would match up to a 60. And then do the front 60 to match. Shouldnt require anyvmodifications up front. They make great stuff although I'm not the biggest fan of radius arms.

I am looking at the 3". So it should work without having to extend anything, right?

im not sure on compatibility but i can tell you that those kings off road shocks are da shizzle. i drove a 05 silverado that had them with 6" lift and 35" knobbies and it rode like a cadillac.

Shouldn't have to but that kit doesn't seem to come with control arms and I would recommend them

The 3" shocks will fit but the hole must be enlarged in the tower for clearance, the over the motor brace will not clear the master cyld it will have to be modded to work. $7000 for 3" of lift please come on, it's nice stuff but not $7000 nice.

Seriously. A $3000 truck with a $7000 suspension. I could never justify that.

I plan on keeping this truck for life and doing a lot of upgrades. The lift kit is more at the end of the list with engine upgrades at the top (cylinder heads, cam shaft, ect...)

Well unless you plan to take up desert racing, that suspension is way overkill.
