as far as i know, the 1/2 & 3/4 trucks, blazers, & suburbans use the same thickness in the steel. 1 tons are thicker & as i said before, depending on their intended use, some had a physically taller rail. however, i don't remember the time span when gm changed the steel in their frames. i believe late 70's or early 80's.? maybe someone else here can pinpoint that for u.
