I think's between 2.5"-3" is the max without needing larger control arms, etc....

Would a 1500 4x4 spring fit on a 1500 rwd?

I don't know. I think the housing is a bit different from the 4x4 and 4x2, not sure how different the actual springs are though.

I wanted to get some diesel 4x4 springs to level off the front of my 2wd, no one know for sure if it would work. You could be the guinea pig!

You need to get 2wd springs, 4wd are a different diameter. Get you some 2500 springs from a diesel or v10. That will net you about 2" of lift.
