Those would be perfect 'cept for one small issue - they are for a 4-6" lifted truck. That leaves a lot of unused hose to keep safe. There are definitely workarounds to that but workarounds take time and generally need to be done at home. I'm thinking I'll be doing these at the bus barn in a rather hurried manner some late night this week. It's the only place I'll have to be indoors. It does scare me to not have a set of hoses on hand however in case I have to destroy them getting the old ones off (calipers). I have new SS brake lines if necessary to run from the module to the rear end so all that would do is add insult and time.If you need or want to upgrade your brake lines at the calipers and the one to the rear diff tee on your 2500 these are the ones I used on mine.. They are listed for the Silverado 2500HD but work on AV 2500's and some 1500's I believe but look them up for your ride...

Northern corrosion issues - aren't they fun?
Over here in southern Ontario, it's the same salt hill as Michigan and Ohio as we are just over the other side of the lake.
Now in western Canada, such as Saskatchewan and Alberta - they are super cold in the winter, but they don't use salt or other corrosive crap that eats vehicles. They use sand instead. So western vehicles are typically in far better shape.
I found out that as soon as the salt season ends and temperatures start to rise, you need to wash the vehicle undercarriage very thoroughly to remove every bit of salt residue. If you don't, the warmer temperatures will actually accelerate the rusting process if the salt residue is allowed to remain. So a good strategy would be to wash and dry the undercarriage, and then apply Rust Check or Krown or something like that. I used to use drain oil with a little diesel mixed in to make it penetrate better in an old paint spray gun, and spray bomb the underside of my former vehicle once or twice a year. It worked very well
Same. I’ve thrown it out so bad before that I had to use crutches to keep the spasms from dropping me to my knees. On that occurrence I went to the chiropractor on my way to work and my way home from work three days in a row. I had to crawl in and out of my car and onto and off of the chiropractor table. I now get an adjustment every three or so weeks. As a matter of fact I have one in the morning.
