Re: What are these called?

I kind of had the same question recently. I have two sets, one set shorter than the other and couldn't figure out why. Never really received a solid answer. Mike

Possibly small block and big block mounts could be the difference.

I think that the heavy duty tucks (3/4 and 1 ton) may have thicker frames which may account for a shorter and longer version of the same part.
