You can use 3/4 ton arms from 67-72 or 73-87.
The 73-87 version have the rubber bushed cross shafts, the 67-72 have the steel bushings just like your 1/2 ton arms.
(3/4 ton balljoint hole, in the arm, is bigger than the 1/2 ton version)

So i take it the 88-98 upper ball joint is the same as my 67 c10 and the lower arm is to fit the larger lower one.
Thanks

From what I understand,... you can bolt the 88-98 upper balljoint into your c10 upper a-arm.
And you will need a C20 (3/4 ton) lower a-arm to use the 88-98 lower ball joint.

I have never done this myself,...
This is info provided by other members here on the board.

Hey Fourtytwo, I am planning on pulling the uppers and lowers off of my CST/20 in a week or so. Let me know if you want them.
