Default Swap 4x4 D350 Suspension with 4x4 D250????

Can you put suspension for a 250 under a 350 singel wheel? wanting to put new suspension like new leaf springs but want a smoother ride with it. i want new shocks, springs, and stuff with a lil bit more lift cuz im putin bigger wheels and tires under it. any ideas?

Not sure how much experience you have with these trucks. But a Dodge 250 Springs are just as hard as Springs on a 350. They're both lumber wagons. Your best bet would be to find a soft ride lift kit. Depending on budget, you could air bag it with a single leaf on each corner...then it would ride like a Cadillac and tow like a semi. What year truck we talking? I'm assuming a first gen because of the D250 thing. And BTW, a 4x4 1st gen is a W and a 4X2 is a D. (sorry to nit pick)
