Are ABody and CBody Printed Circuit Board Pins the Same Size?

[dibbons]

I like the idea of the 2-56 screws used to repair the circuit board that was posted on for C Bodies only. I was wondering if anyone knows if the ABody circuit boards use the same size pins? Thank you.

Here is what I get. 67 to 71? Standard Dart dash.
At the base of most of the pins I get 0.0905

I assume post #2 are ABody pins @ 0.0905. I found a listing for 2-56 screws that show a "major diameter of 0.0860", which seems like a fit. Still not sure if the CBody are an exact match to the ABody. I shop around town for the screws tomorrow.

I would assume both pins and receptacles to be the same size thru all mopar platforms. Be a Gong show having different sizes/suppliers for something like that. Just a guess...

Ummm, why not just install new pins?

I would use brass screws and solder them. "Install new ones?" Where ya gonna find them?

I got a PCB from a 72 van and the pins were the same as my 72 and 73 B body standard dashes.

I have new pins and the tool to correctly swage them in. Search here, there are multiple posts on it.

I shopped three stores here in town for #2-56 machine screws and nuts with no luck (got close when I found brass #2-56 in wood screw versions at Home Depot). Went home and ordered some from Amazon, should be here in a week. I'm a little out of pocket here in Mexico.

Here is a thread where I posted the link to the pins. I do have the correct dies to swage them and can install them at the rate of $4 per pin. That includes parts and labor, return shipping extra.
