So I picked up some 2500 keys today in town.. Not sure which ones they are though. The numbers on them are 15530030 then below that it says NR 23 on and NR 4 on the other. Both are indexed the same but don't have a paint mark on them since they're used.

These should still give me 2"-3" of drop though correct?

Found this when searching that number:

2500HD and 3500 torsion key lift mystery solved. GM has 4 different torsion keys. they all have the same casting number:
15530030

each of the keys is indexed differently, have their own part number, and a color code (small paint mark on the bottom of the key). the mark can be seen by looking under the truck, it is on the bottom of the key.

part numbers are:

15592573 GREEN
15592574 WHITE
15603963 ORANGE
15045171 PURPLE

I have a 2500HD with the PURPLE 15045171 keys. Today I looked at a 1500 and it had the GREEN mark. I talked to the part guy and he had one in stock. GREEN mark, part number 15592573.
I had my stock key with me and compared it to the GREEN key.

Guess What!!
The green key was indexed more than the purple, there for if it was installed on a 2500HD, it would provide a lift just like the Hill and Victoria keys. I knew the Victoria key was a GM product with the numbers ground off. The GREEN 1500 key was indexed exactly the same as the Victoria key I had.

Therefore:

Stock 1500 GREEN keys=torsion lift keys for 2500HD and 3500

There might be others that work for the the 1500's so people don't have to buy the fords anymore
