I have swapped the 1967 front end and K member out for the later 1973, it all bolted up. I didn't like the 1967 K member due to the single bolt attaching point on the K member for the idler arm I'm sure that the 1967 to 1973 A body drum brake spindles for the two different size brakes are the same for the same size brakes, the disc brake spindles may be different for the Kelsey Hayes four piston calipers versus the later bigger single piston caliper. I believe all of the A body ball joints are the same form 1967 to 1972 regardless of the type and size brakes See if you can access Moogs on line catalog on those parts and see if the part numbers are the same Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964.

As Cab says, the KH spindles are different, i know because i looked into a willwood disc kit and it wouldn't fit my spindles.
