As the above poster said the 1500HD is basically a 2500 with a half ton badge. Ok he didn't say that but the bed part is right your truck has the short short bed and the 1500HD 2500 and 2500HD all carry the 6.5 foot long short bed. I have put a 1500HD onto a 2500HD rolling chassis and made a heck of a truck out of it. If you think of frame changing and going to a 4x4 look into trying the best you can to staying with the same year model. Jim
