The only difference is the 3/4 ton has a reinforcing plate welded on to the top rear of the control arm itself. Everything else is the same. WES

Wes, I think he's asking about the front arms.
I do not know personally. I'd just catalog two different trucks at O Reilly website and see if it offers the same part number for both 1/2 and 3/4 ton applications.

Upper shafts are the only difference, lowers are the same shaft. The 3/4 ton upper looks bigger I can't tell if the uppers are a different length though.

 My bad... I just assumed, because the rears are rusted out a lot of the time. WES

Don't the lowers have a bigger ball joint for the beefier spindles?

Ive got chevy truck lower control arms thats about 3" longer on the side that bolts to the crossmember. Not the balljoint side) Is this from a 73 up chevy truck or a heavy half or 3/4 ton???. theyve been refurbished so I hate to get rid of them
