Not an expert here, but I would bet that the changeover would be 61-65 and then 66-Later.
What I mean is; 66 and 67's are identical.

I see they are remaking 66 and up crossmembers for the torsion bars. instead of using those patches.
what is the difference between that and the early b body one? just wondering if I could use the newer style on a 65?
66 up sets engine back further.

I agree 66 up the trans etc sit back farther.Thats why headers etc are mostly 66 up.One reason guys change the K that and it moves weight back some.Rocky

The bolt hole pattern on the early removable crossmember is narrower than the '66 and later. Outer bolt holes are about 15" on the early and about 17" on the later.
The AMD unit would probably work on pre-'66 by using the matching removable crossmember.
