I would call a local ford dealer or a good parts dealer and ask them to check the part #s for both years of your truck. If they are the same part # you can get the new one ready to go in before removing the old one. Hope this helped.

Both should be 1" kingpins and I think you should be fine. As said before - go to Ford or an autoparts store and ask for the kingpins for each year - then have them see if the part numbers come up the same.
