look it up in the catalog, I think they list both the 1/2 and 3/4 lifts as the same part #.

The lift is the same between 1/2ton and 3/4ton and even 1ton for front. I took the lift out of my 1/2ton and put it on my one ton. The only thing you would have to buy would be wheels and tires, because you are going from a 6lug to a 8lug.

There are a few 15 rims for 3/4 ton but my tire dudes just told me that they are really rare now. I've got a set on my 3/4 ton at the moment, 15x7. He said now you can only get 16's or 16.5s for most of the 3/4 trucks.

You can put 15's on a 3/4 if you grindd some off the back caliper...... that would be up to you...... it does work but makes the wall on the caliper thin.....
