They might but you wont get the amount of lift you want out of them. They are just stock keys, and the ford keys are designed to crank higher than stock and most aftermarket torsion keys. They are around 60$ New at the ford dealers.

1500/2500 swap does the same as the ferd keys. They are each clocked different in respect to the TB orientation, thus allowing more or less torsion, leading to lift or drop.
I don't agree that they don't affect ride quality, because either way they do. Maybe minimal, and acceptable to some, but I hated it in my dropped truck.

Of course they affect ride quality, they ride like crap most of the time lol. Bilstein does make a shock specially made for our trucks with ford keys though and if you arent cranked to the sky it rides a lot better than any other aftermarket shock with keys. A lot of guys on fullsize run them and love them. The 1500 Keys are the same as ford keys in a 2500 though? I thought the ford keys are clocked way more than the stock 1500 keys though? Maybe Im wrong I dont know, Ive compared the two and they seem different

Hillbilly: Kinda late but have you already turned your stock keys? You just replace them if you need to keep going higher.
GT killer mine is a 2000 with ford keys and running 285/75/16 just to give you an idea, but again you can just turn the ones you have too.
I agree with aggie if you don't have enough lift with your stock keys the s10 ones won't work. They look just like my stock keys. The ford keys have the hex shape turned a little more.
