cant have both, if you want to bring it up Im pretty sure you want to use stock 1500(non-HD) keys, can prolly buy them for cheap off a member that has the ford keys.

Yes, and yes.

You can get some of the ride back by going with larger tires with 33's on my chevy 2500 and fully cranked bars the ride wasnt half bad.
