Swapping front suspension

I'm swapping the front suspension from the 77 F100 donor to my 66 F100.

For the pivot and radial arm bushings, does it matter which "year" that I buy, should I buy for 66 or for 77?

Richard, Does they have different part numbers. My guess is it doesn't matter but do check further. It's been 12 years, since I did mine.

Well what I do see is round vs oval, so I have to see what I have.

I'm going to tear the front suspension down, blast them, paint them, then put in new kingpin sets, bushings, etc.
