Im new at this and im woundering if anything on a Volare will interchange on a 67 to 76 Dart. I can get one cheap enough and could use a lot of parts if they will work. Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question but i dont know. Thanks in advance
 
You "Can" use the disc brake setup but with the FMJ spindles bein 2 inches taller it cause the upper and lower control arm to not be parralel and can cause bumpsteer. You would just need A body spindles and use everything else
 
This car has buckets,center console front disc brakes a 83/4 rear end..im told..........thats why im asking..also cragers that will fit..LBP.Thanks for the help.
 
The spindles are 3/8 of an inch taller and the bump steer issue is a hot debate, with many using them and having no problems. I think the buckets will work, but won't be correct. I don't think an 8 3/4 was ever offered in an F/M/J, but a 8 1/4 is more likely as an optional axle or cop axle in those cars and could be sure grip. LOTS of fasteners and brackets interchange.
 
The traks on the buckets would need to be change to a body unless you dont mind drilling holes for them to fit. 8 3/4 ended in cars in 72 and no fmj ever had them unless swaped in by somone and the FMJ axle is like 3 inches wider 1.5 inches on each side
 
their's always some bump steer. does anyone have any actual numbers of how much extra this supposedly induces?

"one man's bump steer is another's steering feel" as they say
