carli fox front shocks 2500 vs 3500

[Drumminguy81]

Just curious if anyone knows what the difference in the front shocks only would be between a 2500 diesel 4x4 and 3500 diesel 4x4. I am specifically looking for info on the carli tuned fox 2.0 ipf front shocks. I contacted carli and they werent able to tell me any information about how they are different just that there is a different part number and probably different valving, but couldnt tell me what the real difference is or for what purpose. I know they are dimensionally identical. I have a set of BNIB carli fox front shocks for a 2500 and was hoping to use them on my 3500 but not sure what ill effects there might be. To be honest I cant image they would be worse than the stock shocks.. any input is welcomed.

Are the different part numbers because the rear shocks are different?

Since they've gone to their own shocks, it's tougher to look up. But the instructions/shock pages show the full sets, therefore different numbers correspond to the set being different for the rear.

no the individual part numbers are different, and according to their tech support "the valving is different" They couldn't tell me how or why. The springs used are identical as well.

I am sure it is valving and I bet you wouldn’t notice. I would just mount them

for the record I ended up installing the 2500 shocks on my 3500, they fit fine as expected and ride excellent.
