I'm sure the K member won't and probably not the other suspension parts either I have a 1965 Dart 270 and a original 1969 Dart GTS H code 383 4 speed car, the inner frame rails on the 1965 car are around 28.5 inches wide and the 1969 inner frame rails are about one inch wider Hopefully some one who has tried that will chime in Why do you want to swap those parts?

Nope the K member will not fit. The other A body parts will bolt on. (Except the Drag Link bar as noted in post below) Idler arm is different too. 65 is bolt on and 70 is bolt through and stronger.
Yes B body control arms will too but you must use the B body spindles too due to larger Ball joint studs taper. I have that on my 65 B-Cuda.

I bought my 65 Barracuda used in 1986. It was originally my moms new but we sold it in around 1972. 273 4bb Formula S, A904, 3.23:1 SG 7 1/4 rear. Baby blue with a black stripe.
Between the two, it was sold 3 times and a father and son built it up. Son did not keep his grades up and his dad put it up for sale.
They put the Road Runner upper and lower control arms on with the KH 4 piston calipers. Big ball joints. A 383 HP and 727 trans 1 Ford 9 inch rear with 3.50:1 gears Dual 2 1/4 inch pipes. 235/70 14's on LBP Ralley's
