Here's a bump for you.

I think mine are 2" on my 1/2 ton 68 GMC, but you should probably check yours to make sure. In those days you could just about order anything you wanted as long as it was available or someone may have converted them.

isnt it 2" front and 2 3/4" rear?

I could check today at work.

For a C-10, 1/2T you need 2" and they're the same front and rear.
