Hi all,
now I get my first part to bring my front suspension from a Tubular IFS from Control freak suspension ( first generation )
back to original K-Member style suspension .
Can anyone tell me from what a car and year the k-member came ?

i just found a stamped number on it : 43081

And second question :
what K-Members will fit a 68 charger R/T ? Only big block k-Members from 68-70 B-Body’s , or all Big Block and small block K-Members From 68-70 B-Body’s
Or also fit a 71 up K frame a 68 charger ?
And what a way I have to go ( or the better one ) to fit my 2 gen. Hemi to this K-Member?
Just use motor mount conversion to Hemi from shumacher ?
Or I hear you can also modified the mountings on the K-Frame to Hemi style, that’s right ?

That is a 66-7 B K-frame. 68-9 is the same except has different idler arm bracket and takes 9/16" steering box bolts instead of the 1/2" ones on the 66-7.
70-72 takes a different sway bar
70 is a one year only cross between the 68-9 and the 71-2.
68-9 would be correct for your car as far as fit.
3 different frames. /6, V-8 and Hemi. 440 cars had a skid plate on the V-8 frame.
 
That looks like a through bolted idler arm mount to me. The single point mounts have a thick plate welded on the bottom, so there is enough meat for a taper. Without a better picture, I think it is a 68 or 69 k frame.
 
I thought it looked like a stud bracket but looking again and remembering about the plate your right. Looks like a 68-9 unit. I'm not great with date codes but would that be April 30th 1968?
