1-ton bushing or A arm in 1/2 ton?

Hello all,

I was over removing some stuff of of a 1-ton tonight, and I noticed the A arm bushings are greaseable metal units.

Does anyone happen to know if the A arms are the same dimensions/triangulation, between 1/2 ton, and 1 ton?

I didn't think about checking the shaft length or the O.D. of the bushings while I was there, but I think the O.D. was smaller than my rubber ones, Ill have to measure and see if I can just put the metal assembly's in my A arms tomorrow, but I just thought I would ask.

I have to replace the A arm bushings coming up anyhow, reason I am thinking about swapping them over, it will probably ride a little rougher, but I imagine the suspension would have a bit more positive feel.

The sway bar is getting swapped over, btw.

Thank you.
