Differences between 2500 and 3500

Fellow Rammers:

What are all the differences between 2500 and 3500 4X4s? Ok, besides the obvious training wheels on the 3500. But what about :

front/rear axles
front/rear springs
drive shafts
brakes
frame
sway bars

Just thinking: Ford/Chevy have single rear wheel 1-ton trucks. What about making a single rear wheel 1-ton Dodge???
