the kit enlists the exact same part numbers

Okay, so if you seem to know all the answers, then why are you asking questions...

Wrong in almost ever capacity...

3rd gen axles are made by American Axle Manufacturers, NOT Dodge.
Coils WILL swap over.
Leaves WILL swap over.
Shocks WILL swap over.

Don't give people wrong info.

You've made it clear that your mechanical knowledge far surpasses anyone else on this forum, and you somehow managed to put a 6.1 Cummins in a Ram, but you can't figure out a lift kit?

Or perhaps you're just mistaken and arrogant.
