RE: Disc Brakes & Front Ends

[Steven Charette <stevec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The '62-'65 K-member is different than the '66-later part.  Using the '66-up
K-member (or an aftermarket K-member designed for a '66-later car) will
result in the engine being set back over 1 1/2".  Lots of other things won't
fit well either unless you're a good fabricator.

A lot of parts listings incorrectly group the '65 with the later cars.  We
run into that often when doing part number research.

Good question Gary...I could not get the link to it to work.
My thought is....maybe something like this is the way to go after you add up
all the costs. To late for me anyway but we all know how the sharp the hind
sight vision is.....

http://www.hotrodsusa.com/store/cf_ifs.html is one system that lists Bolt-In
Mopar IFS Systems for 1965-1972 "B" Body.

Wonder why are not 1962-1964 B Body cars listed?

Thanks,
Gary H.
