Question Left and right side spindles

I am reassembling the front suspension from a '66 1/2 ton and wondered if the spindles are specific for left and right sides of the truck.
Side by side they look identical, but before I go too far into the reassembly I want check.
I couldn't find anything in a search of the forums.

Re: Left and right side spindles

Never mind.
I looked up the GM part number for the spindles (knuckles) and found 1 number listed and 2 pieces required - same part for both sides.

Tie rod holes will be towards the front that will determine left and right.

Thanks.
The tie rod brackets are seperate from the spindles though, so I thought I would ask to be sure.
