Gary,

Thanks... That makes sense. Reading some of 
the articles, it seemed that they were making this
thing way to complicated.

Earl,

  I've done three of the 73-76 A body swaps to a  64 B/ 70 E/ 69 A body so
far. For the B body, just use your upper and lower control arms that you
already have on the 65 B body with new ball joints for the B body. The tie
rods are the same. You would use the upper disc brake control arm if you
were changing out a drum brake A body to discs. Very easy swap and best of
all - all MOPAR.
