K1500 is a 96 and the k2500 is a 2000As long as you match slave cylinder designs its a direct bolt-in (Internal slave to internal slave or external to external)
What years are your two trucks?
Edit, you will also have to modify the cross-member slightly with a drill when swapping.
I've got a new master cylinder and hydraulic line that's not even a year old but would definitely go ahead and replace the other things to avoid the trouble of taking it all apart again. Would I need to modify anything else other than the cross member?That should be an easy swap then, anything after 95 had the internal slave.
I'd recommend changing all the clutch parts while your in there also... clutch, resurface or new flywheel, slave, throwout, hydraulic line, etc.
I've seen a couple heavy halfs running around town with six lug wheels and a heavy duty driveline and suspensionI agree with everything RichLo says & will add if you were worrying about it fitting, I've seen several 1500s that came with nv4500s
I think as long as you get the clutch for that specific transmission you should be good, if you're replacing the clutch you might as well spend the extra money and replace the rear main seal, throw out bearing and slave cylinder if you have an internal slave. I made the mistake of only doing the clutch and spent $1600 to have the internal slave cylinder and hydraulic system replaced at a shopI have a 94 5.7 with the NV4500 newbie question I'm sure, but it needs a new clutch. Being the HD tranny does it need a special clutch?
