1/2 ton 2wd lower ball joints-any diff between 67-70 and 71/72?
I know tie rods and upper ball joints are different between drum and disk equipped trucks. I was wondering if the lowers were the same or not (same part#). Something tells me they may be but I need to confirm. Long story

71-72 lower ball joints are different for sure. Not for sure on the uppers. Inner and outer tie rods are also different!

the diff. is in the stud where they go in the spindle. later ones are larger & longer. they will interchange on to older arms. thats what I did since I had rebuilt my 68 arms before going to discs from an 80 C10. they bolt right up on the uppers & press right in on the lowers.
