I think 2009 was the first year of the fourth gen ram. Not sure just how much changed suspension-wise though.

2009 started 4th gen for the 1500's, 25/3500's were still 3rd gens but with 4th gen engines........weird, I know. Even weirder when you look under the hood of a 2009 2500 and see that eagle hemi sitting there lol.
2010 started 4th gen for 25/3500's and they still had leaf springs until later years. You'll need to do part number comparisons; spring packs came in a wide variety of configurations for varying reasons; the capability of the older springs may not match what your truck has (if they even fit). For example:
