Spindles for c10 longbed same as shortbed

1) Can anyone tell me if the spindles for a C10 long bed are the same as for a C10 shortbed?
2) If so, then is the ackerman angle more correct on the long or shortbed?
Thanks

I don't think the ackerman is going to be significantly different because of the change of wheelbase. Remember that the difference in wheelbase is less than 11%.

Ackerman is the difference in the angle between the inside and outside wheels at full lock.
