Frame swap????

[nathan77]

Does anybody know if the frame from a 1971 plymouth valiant will fit on a 74 plymouth duster?

 

[pauly v.100]

they're unibody, they don't have frames.

They do have frame rails, they just aren't connected, he means I am hopeing that will the pieces work.

If you mean front k-frame, yes, they will bolt in but the motor mounts are different style between the two years. The '71 has "biscuit mounts and the '74 will have "spool" mounts.

yes it will work

If you ARE talking K frames the above info is correct. If you are asking about FRAME RAILS: I remove and sell frame rails. Except for the location of the bumper holes, the front frame rails from a 67-76 A body are interchangable.
