It is hard to find lower control arm bushes for the 1961 Plymouth Valiant. What is involved in upgrading to a 62' Plymouth Valiant front end? Thanks |

You need the entire k frame and steering box, engine mounts, and lower control arms. Possibly strut rods, and upper control arms, spindles. Not sure on the steering linkages/ center link/ pitman arms/ idler arms. The swap will work with any slant 6 k frame in a '66-'62 A body. Steering column might need swapped as well. |
