Default Ball joints

Hey guys,I am re-doing all the bushings on my c5 and while I have it torn apart I'm going to go ahead and do all the ball joints,my question is,moog or proforged have part numbers for the front upper and lower but nothing for rear upper or lower,I am assuming that they are the same as the front uppers and lower,they sure do look it,I've measured then put them side by side, I would sure like to hear back from a
suspension pro, please chime in, thanks in advance

all the uppers are the same and all the lowers are the same... the spindles are also the same on LF/RR and RF/LR, basically they are just flipped around and used on the other side of the car
