4th Gen Shocks on a 3rd Gen Ram??

[brantner22]

I have 4th Gen 1500 Shocks that literally have 10k miles on them from a previous truck of mine. My question is, does anyone know if they will bolt up to a 2002-2005 1500 model 3rd Gen?

Front/rear 2wd/4wd? You've given us almost no information.

Well if you got them laying around try jacking the truck up and sizing them up worst come to worse just re install your original shocks and Call it a day

I agree with LS, just wing it bro

I didn't know there was a difference in the suspension between 2wd and 4wd. I have front and rear shocks from my old 2012 4wd to put on my 2003 4wd. I lifted my 2012 and then sold it a few months ago and I still have all the factory suspension parts to it.


I'll probably just do what LS suggested and jack it up and see if they fit. I was just looking to see if anyone has done it or heard about someone else doing it before jumping in to it.

Did you do the install and did it work, asking mainly about the rears.
