Usual vendors do not carry and can't tell me what differences I am looking for.
AND
Should you have that info you might direct me to the shocks. Maybe the 2WD shocks are the same, but I suspect height of 4WD may lead to different shocks.
Thanks for assist.

Ended up using Rancho's as I could not find stock ones.

Might you have any idea why Chevy and GMC might be different or are they the same? | | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 23 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 23 | Mine is factory system from handle to backing plates. I think it is the same as I have a 1966 K-10 Chevy Shortbed Stepside, just has shorter rear cables. Seems I just ordered them right off their list. I have the invoice and will list it tonite. The backing plate is Bendix so it is a standerd 2 bolt plate as it travels though to the E-arm inside the drum. Nice quality. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 240 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 240 | The chevy is a Corp read end where the GMC usually are Dana 44's and parking brake for the Dana are almost impossible to find
