what wears on the one ton lca? is it the nut or the shaft? or are they designed to not wear, and never get replaced?

Both pcs wear, it just depends on how much wear as to replacement parts used. I have gotten lucky enough to replace bushings only & tighten up an old truck for a while. If you have lots of slop in the arms, you would be best to change shafts & bushings tho....

Maybe if they were made of kryptonite? This is GM truck parts we are taking about. It's going to wear out sooner or later...
