Yes, they're different.

1985 C10 arms use press-fit rubber bushings. 1985 C30's utilize the HD rubber/steel sleeve screw on style bushings.
BJ's for C30 lower arms are HD & a larger OD.
Upper control arm shafts are different because C10's use 1/2" mounting studs & C20's/30's use 9/16".

You'll have to know/research what the aftermarket arms you're looking @ offer.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
