Hey all. Quick easy question for somebody that knows...

What is the differance between the rear shackle on the rear leaf spring on a 72 versus a 73-87 4x4? Assume both trucks are 1/2 tons.

Long story short, a freind of a friend of a friend is parting out his '74 and he's got a shackle flip kit on it. If I remember correctly, it's not a direct bolt in, but it's close, so with a little fab work I could score a sweet flip kit cheap for my '72
