I'm not too sure on that year model, but I know that I did this same thing to my 01 1500 and it was a perfect match. Just make sure they're the same length and I thinks it's ok

Im not posative about a 93, but I know from 99 until this year all the 1/2 and 3/4 tons were 2.5" wide and interchangeable but the 1 tons were 3 inches wide. Ive got 3/4 ton lift springs for a 99-06 0n my 11 half ton but starting in 11 all the 3/4 and 1 tons have 3". I do believe it went back that far with the one tons being 3" but you could get some aftermarket 3/4s that hold 1 ton weight...
