1966 coronet to 70 dodge charger suspension swap???

A buddy fully customized his 70 Charger RT and I'm buying the full front and rear suspension out of the car.

My plan is to rebuild the suspension, detail it and slide a 440/auto onto the K-frame and slide the whole thing into a 30k mile slant-6/auto 66 coronet 4door.

My question is on the rear. Will the Hemi springs and 8-3/4 rear from the 70 charger fit into the coronet OK? I was thinking the rear is a little narrower on the 66 and may cause me some wheel well clearance. I do plan on running G-Series redlines I have sitting around.

Thanks
Chris

The 70 K member is differnt but if you use the 70 lower control arms and sway bar, it all bolts up.
Regarding the rear axle, yes it is a bit wider. I believe the difference is 3/4" total. If you intend to run stock 6" wide rims you'll be fine.

thanks.

Yes, I have the whole K member assembly, sway bar, and upper, lower A-arms, spindles, disc brakes, etc.

Same with the rear. springs and rear, drum to drum.

I think the rear might be a tad wider, but I'm not sure. In any even that can be offset w/ some offset rims

are the rear springs usable also?

8 3/4 has the hemi springs on it. I was thinking they will work and the same as we put on my dads old hemi gtx.

measure them. Or you could go online to Mancini and see if the part numbers are the same. I'd guess they are the same, but I could be wrong.
