Caliper swapping

Are the calipers then same between Hd2wd and HD4wd? I've got a D44 on the Highboy and beams off the old crew cab and the calipers just locked up on the Highboy and since they are both dual piston I'm guessing they are gonna fit.

Put that question to the local parts store counter monitors and see what their computer says.

I am thinking the piston itself is the same but a different "c bracket" not to sure what to call the other part of the caliper assembly itself. But due to the 4wd hub design it might be different, FYI the C bracket will unbolt....
