73-87 C20 ride much different from newer 2500? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Seem to have read a lot about the overly stiff ride from older 3/4 tons, but when I last washed the company truck 2013 2500 HD I looked and it seemed to have a million leafs in the back..and it doesn't ride bad at all. It is a commuter with zero extra weight in the back too.

Considering my work truck is a 2wd, would a square body c20 2wd be that much worse for ride, and why? Am I missing something? See plenty of c20s being converted to c10s, but I assumed it was mostly for bolt pattern change??
