eaton vs. corp 14

Just wondering, my 70 has the eaton rear...3/4t are ho52, and 1 tons are ho70?? I have come across a parts truck 3/4t....1982, and was wondering, if its worth it to pull the front and rear axles off of this truck, or if i would actually be trading down? In terms of strength, which is better? I have a 4x4, so the front axle is the 44hd, aside from the difficulty in finding parts, what are drawbacks, or positives to these different axles?
Why did GM switch?
