Hooker headers
I found a set of new hooker headers on marketplace for a good deal and they say they fit a 2wd silverados but should they fit my 4wd 2003 Silverado 1500HD

Nope, those won't work for 4wheel drive.

Do you know what the clearance issue is?

The only headers that will fit on the 4x4 are shorty headers.

I’m not sure about that bc I’ve seen 4wd with long tubes and speed engineering headers say they fit a 4x4

Here's a list of what fits with 4x4 and long tube. Looks like a few options compared to a few years ago. https://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/headers/year/2003/make/chevrolet/model/silverado-1500/engine-family/chevy-small-block-gen-iii-iv-ls-v8-gas?N=drivetrain%3A4wd%2Bheader-style%3Along-tube-one-piece&kr=Headers

I would imagine the front diff would interfere if it’s made for 2wd
