The pintle hook on the left looks like a WC 3/4-ton pintle hook with both an upper cast side ridge angled upwards to the top of the mounting base from near the pivot point and a horizontal raised ridge going straight back to the mounting base, whereas the pintle hook on the right looks like a WC 1/2-ton pintle hook with only a single horizontal raised ridge going straight to the mounting base from the mid-point of the curved ridge around the opening.
The WC 3/4 ton pintle hook shared part number CC-920762 with the Power Wagon pintle hook whereas the slightly smaller and lighter WC 1/2 ton pintle hook with the single raised side ridge had different part number CC-598456.
It would be really helpful if T-roy's photo included a side view of each pintle hook so we could compare the raised ridges along the side of each one. But absent a clear photo, I see two raised ridges on the left pintle hook and only one raised ridge on the right pintle hook.
The left WC 3/4 ton & PW pintle hook has a large enough opening on its bottom to allow the latch to move fully to the rear when installed, whereas the latch on the right WC 1/2-ton pintle hook is mounted further towards the rear (when installed) and lacks sufficient space to move fully to the rear before hitting the rear frame cross member.
