The frame mounting brackets for both kits that you mentioned do not have the same part number and they cannot be used interchangeably. The part numbers that you listed are the actual part numbers for the brackets. Part # RP50066 is the part number for the inboard facing brackets and part # RP50066-58 is the part number for the entire install kit that includes the base rails.

And again, part # RP56001, is the part number for the outboard facing brackets only and part # RP56001-53 is the part number for the installation kit that includes the base rails.

I have attached the installation instructions and installation videos of both installation kits on a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 for you to check out.
