I have A-bodys, c-bodys, 2 64s and a few in storage that I don't have a clue what they came out of, any differences other than pitman arm? Anyway to check condition (wear) before I install it?

I would give Firm Feel a quick call & pick their brains for some free advice. Other than that just me I would install the one that fits the easiest & go from there. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
