Default Front lower control arms

I'm in the middle of rebuilding the front suspension on a 2010 Grand Sport chassis.
I need new front lower control arms.
I show a couple different part numbers
Front Lower Right: 20799882 & 20799886
Front Lower Left: 20799881 & 20799885
I don't have a VIN to work with since it's just the chassis going on my 58 Apache.
Anyone know the difference on the these arms?

the only difference I have noticed on them is the ball stud for the magnetic ride control. either will work but if your using magnetic ride without the ball stud you would need to tap the control arm to install the stud

Well I'm not using any ride control.
The 86 & 85 arms are much less expensive than the 81 & 82. I assume they all come with bushings and ball joints?
