I'm replacing the lower control arms and I'm wanting to upgrade to factory sway bar brackets already mounted on the lower control arms. I got a lead on the control arms but they're off a 1969 Dodge Charger. Are there any differences between the 1969 to 1971 "B" bodies?

Thanks, Doug

The lower control arms from 70-74 E bodys or 70-72 B bodys will work.

1970-74 cuda/challenger
1970-72 coronet, charger roadrunner, satellite, belvedere, superbee and GTX are all the same, even the 4-b-body cars will work.

yes it would , but you'll have to drill holes in the K frame but if you have disc brakes with front mounted calipers the caliper will hit the swaybar before you get to full lock .
