2500 vs 3500

I am thinking of ordering a new 05 4x4 long bed CC.
I now have a 2000 long bed 4x4 with 157,000 miles
How about pros & cons 2500 vs 3500
Like----
1- Ride, Does the 3500 SRW ride much different than the 2500?

2- How can you order a sway bar and over load springs on the 2500
like my 2500 had with the camper package?

3- The 2500 does not have a good payload if you want to tow a 5th wheel
with a pin weight of 2000 lbs

4- Is there a DELETE for the clearance lights?

5-Any other things I should consider like are brakes the same??
are Axles the same??
