Rear end question? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I usually hang in the 60's section but I need to know something.

I was told that a 72 c-10 4 x 4 rear end is identical in every way to a 64 rear end, trailing arms and all.

True or no?

I'm swapping the 64 6 lug for a 5 lug bolt pattern.

4x4 69-72 all had leaf spring. I can't answer about trailing arm setup, but seems likely that it could be same.
