The studs are the same for 1/2 tons & larger on 1-tons. The 73-87 upper a-arm shafts do have a concave side that requires a matching convex spacer/shim to center the shafts vs. the pre-73's which are flat on both sides.

If you use the 73-87 upper a-arms, get those convex washers.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
