They are different in the rear with respect to the shock absorber mounts.

The springs are the same, LN46 has the shock absorbers facing inwards and bolting to the crossmember. The mid 80's (eg: LN65) was the first 4x4 Lux to use the opposite facing shockies facing bolted to the chassis rails. Also shockies have different size eyes. I also think the bumpstops are very slightly different.

Not very good explaination, but I hope it makes sense.
Wheeling on completely wicked angles, without even looking stable.
