Just like the title says. I was going to replace them but the only ones I can find say FWD. I wasn't sure if they are actually different or if they are the same thing.

Yup, all aftermarket balljoints for 1gs are the same whether FWD or AWD. Also, 1g AWD have six balljoints (2 up front, 4 in rear) and they're all identical to each other (and also identical to the balljoints on the FWD).
