Cab mounts on a C20

I just picked up a '63 C20 and have a question about cab mounts. They're in dire of replacing, but all the suppliers I've seen them at all say "1/2 ton only." I'm thinking there must be a reason.

Does anyone know why?

Thanks!

Re: Cab mounts on a C20

The rear cab mounts are different between c10 and c20. The c20 have a hook looking thing built into them. The c10 are a regular mount.
