If you are talking late 90's to 2007 6.0/4L80E trucks
The 2500 is the same as a 1500HD
The 2500 became the 1500HD
They had a semi floating 9.5 inch rear end.
They were an 8200lbs gross weight truck.
The 2500HD 6.0/4l80E trucks had a full floating 10.5 inch 14 bolt rear end.
They were a 9200lbs gross weight truck.
The rear section of the frame was larger.
