Is this a GM D60 steering knuckle on the left?

Notice the steering arm is kind of centered on that knuckle on the left.

My D60 knuckle has the arm lower down on the knuckle , like the knuckle on the right. I ask because I bought a replacement knuckle (not noticing it was the centered arm style) , and when it came I noticed it did not match my original knuckles which have the lower arms. Can I mix and match?
 
Looks like one is Dodge and one is GM...definitely not a matching set. IIRC the Dodge knuckle has the tie rod location a bit higher than the GM version.

IIRC Ford had a different spindle bolt pattern so I would agree that one knuckle is for a Chevy and one is for a Dodge
 
ford d60's have 5 bolts to hold the hub on, chevy has 6 and im guessing dodge do too. as trustyk5 said there deffinately not a matched pair of knuckles
 
Looks like the seller (not the Craiglist one, it was just a good photo I found on the net comparing the two) unknowingly sent me a Dodge D60 knuckle in error. It was an Ebay sale and the seller said they'll make good on it. Thanks all for helping me confirm what the knuckle application was.
