Default Do RAM shocks bolt up?

So I ordered my rear shocks, 2212DD belltechs, and today i got 2212DD boxes with 2212FF shocks in them. Looked them up, and they are for the RAMs 02-12

Will RAM shocks bolt up or is the fitment different in some way? Length isn't an issue of course since both are 22-12's, but more the bolt size and eyelet width..
I imagine the dampening will be stiffer too..

These are belltech 2212s which basically means 22 out, 12 in. (Give or take) They are lowering shocks. Both are the same length open and closed for ram or dakota.. its the fitment that may be different
