a-100 front axles

[Neal Zimmerman]

I found a 1969 a-108 van in the junkyard up the road. Will this year have the correct front axle they used in the awb cars ? I have a 1965 coronet and wonder if it would fit?
What all should I grab from the front end, what parts are needed? Backing plates and spindles obviously, but what about the steering gear, steering box , etc?

Grab the springs, steering box, column and drag links plus cross link between the wheels.....basically all of it ties up together as a bundle.

You can work out doing different after you grab the parts. The spindles are also fairly unique....just grab it all.

.just grab it all.

Nice score ! A-100's are hard to come by anymore.

Yeah I wish they would just sell me the whole vehicle but they wont. It still has the 8.75 rear end underneath it , and I hear they will fit under a mopar a-body if you flip the spring mounts. Buckets are still in it too.
