They will fit,

But it be higher due to the weight difference, also the spring rate will be different.

I think the cab is heavier at the back, so would sit lower :D

they'll fit and the ride height should be about right. the spring rate will be about right too. it's not 100% perfect but a lot better than saloon ones.

if the rear sits a bit low, it's a relatively easy job to get some shims made to raise it a tad.
