ball joints - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

the ball joints on 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton have different part numbers. What is different? Will 3/4 joints fit 1/2 ton arms? Is the difference the size of the spindle mount or is the whole joint bigger? If one were to say, make a 1/2 ton a 3/4 ton or visa versa is the joint all that needs changing or the whole arm? Anyone done this? I could go to the parts store with my measuring calipers but I'm asking first before I dive into this question.
