Did 3/4 and 1 ton 4x4s both have the same front axles? how can i tell a dana 60 and a 14 bolt apart? also will any 73-87 chevy blazer burb truck 3/4 or 1 ton axle bolt right in? or is there diffrences in driveshafts and spring perches or width?

Top picture is a 60 and bottom is a 14bff. The 60 has a different style spring plate on the passenger side. They're pretty easy to spot.
