Interchangable Radius Arms

Does anyone know if all 73-79 radius arms for 4x4 are the same or are they type model and year specific?

As far as I know, they are interchangeable. However, the later models with dual shocks have ears cast into them for the forward shocks.

D6TZ-3A360-A .. Radius Arm R/L same = 1973/77 F100 / 1975/77 F150 / 1976/77 Bronco.

D8TZ-3A360-A .. Radius Arm = 1978/79 F150 & Bronco / Right & Left with Quad Shocks / Left without Quad Shocks.

D8TZ-3A360-B .. Radius Arm = 1978/79 F150 & Bronco / Right without Quad Shocks.
