Will 2500 coil springs and leaf springs fit under a 1500?? How much lift it give if it does?

 

The coils will fit in the front, but for the 2500 leaf springs to fit you will have to change the spring mounts. the 2500 leaf springs are wider than the 1500 leaf springs.

 

Coil springs should give you about 10 inches of lift. I **** you not man. The leaf springs give you so much lift you can't even measure it with a 25ft tape measure.

You'll be driving over the local prius owners on no time. I'd go with 50in tires if I was you.

 

The front coils swap in and will give you about a 2 inch lift in the front, levelling out the truck. The rear leafs require some cutting and moving. Not worth it in my opinion. It's almost the same amount of work to swap in a rear 2500 d60 axle. Front coil swap, giver.

 

v10/diesel coils will net about 2.5" of front lift, rears require replacing the hangers as well.

 

So reading this, it sounds like a Dana 60 will bolt right up in the front end, but the rears just need new spring hangers? Is that right? Sounds pretty simple.

 

Or you can cut the perches off. Put 2.5in perches on and keep the 1500 springs.

 

perfect thats what i needed to know. coil springs will work, real leaf wont, without mods.
