Same all the way to 73. You can use one for a 71-72. There is no difference on the uppers, except maybe the ball joint. I have a really nice one here that is not new, but looks very nice. Which side you need?

passenger side, and it is 57 is there a difference?

57? I thought you wanted one for your 68? I will have to check what side my really good one is for. I can't remember now. If it's a 57, it would have had a straight axle in the front with a leaf spring. They didn't have IFS back then for 1/2 ton trucks. They are all the same from 67-72 for the trucks though.

My really good one is a driver side. I have one with good threads for the passenger side, but it is not as good looking as the other one. Came off a running, driving truck. Even sandblasted it and painted it.
