Rear yes, but will require different rear wheels and drive shaft. Front is a no. Front you are looking at 07.5-13 1500. Rear you can go 99-13 1500, but all 99-04 1500 rears and 07.5-13 1500 with 6.0 and 6.2 will have rear dosc brakes. Also the 07.5-13 6.0-6.2 rears are a 9.5" semi-float instead of the 8.625" semi.

Sorry didn't give enough info. Anyway to swap suspension and front and rear gear ratio. From a 2008 Chevrolet 1500 to 2500. If so what years

To swap front suspension to a 2500 requires a new frame. You are looking at 2 different suspension systems. The rear, i ran 2500 springs on my 04. To do what you want it will be cheaper to buy a new truck

Thanks man

I was buying a second truck anyways. Only reason i bought the truck is i couldn't pass it up. At 8800 and only 130,000 miles ya know. Do know anything bout suspension upgrades. Thats the main reason i was looking to do all this. I run plow in winter time.

No.

 

The frames are different between the two trucks and the 2009 Silverado rear axle uses ABS/traction control and the 2000 rear axle does not.

Can I run a like 2003 or around that rear axle in my 2007 new body style with same gears or are the spring widths different

I have a front diff. From a 2018 chevy. Will it fit in my 2003 chevy

No. We are talking two generations of trucks newer than yours, it's not going to work.

Can I put a 2018 Silverado 1500 diff on my 08 Silverado 1500? And if so what modifications are necessary?

Which end?  I don't know if the brackets are the same for the rear, they do use a larger Yoke and U-Joint.

 

K2s use a 9.5 or 9.76 12-Bolt Salisbury axle whereas the 900s use an 8.6 (10-Bolt) or 9.5 (14-Bolt) Saginaw axle.

Can I put the front struts off a 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500 on a 2008 GMC YUKON XL

 

 

Yes, but it will ride like crap.  The front suspension on most pickups is rated for 3950 and the Yukon XL is 3600.
