Default Leaf Springs

Does anyone know if leaf springs from a 4wd 1500 quad cab will fit on a 2wd 1500 quad cab?

Same body, same wheelbase. I don't see why not...

yeah thats what I figured, only difference I really saw is maybe the added weight from the transfer case, but Im not sure if thats enough to have any difference in the springs

i'm with hammer...don't know for sure, but same frame and axle. i'm sure they probably use the same leafs for all the 1500 trucks, regardless of cab/bed/driveline...that's why payload varies w/ cab/bed size. but, that's just a guess

I guess this probably settles it, looks like payload capacity is basically the same except for the difference in vehicle weight, which matches the difference in capacity, the column on the left is a 2wd, the one on the right is a 4wd
