"Fit" is a general term, used mainly on this forum to describe how skilled you need to be with a welder.

Yup they are 1500s and as long as they are 2.5in wide they should be fine. Take the clamps off each end and take the eyebolt off and line em up bolt the eye down, c-clamp the ends and reapply clamps and waalaa leafpack, it will at lift and be HD and stiffer

It will ride rough like most bastard packs but will do the job.
