Help with the K member!

you should have everything, i did this but my donor was a 73 scamp with 10 in drum instead of the stock 9'', i bent it drifting an intersection and getting greedy, but it was simple it should drop right in, like the others said, while your there replace everything, i did everything minus the shocks for about 300-350? get ready to fight with the torsion bars and make sure they're straight, what i suggest is get it level as possible (not on a drive way like we did) unbolt, lift the k with a jack loosen the torsion bars and pull towards the front or else you get pressure on the bars and you aint going nowhere.. its just 4 big bolts n torsion mainly. i do remember making this tool that saved me and my dads butts.. if you want to be extra motivated about it, degrease everything including the tranny tunnel i shot mine with some spray on lining, over all its not that bad have fun! n don't forget to get it aligned obviously. i read many drag people preferred the slant6 k due too weight, on shumacher.com they have instructions and these motor mounts that weld into the /6 k to turn it into a B.B. I'm dropping a 383 in mine. hope this helped.


Thank you!!! that was a huge help. where did you find the parts you replaced, like torsion bars, ball joints, bushings and stuff like that, and do you have a list of all the things you replaced i could see.
