I have been searching for a year now to find a "Spool" type K member for the Scamp. I currently have the /6 K-member with Schumacker mounts. a I don't like the Way the engine sits in the cradle with the conversion mounts. Planning on using the aluminum strut rods in the picture, as they came with everything. Any body have some feed back on the strut rods? also I require the caliper brackets as well as the upper ball joints to complete the swap. Whats the best way to mate the Upper control arms from my 72 to the spindle?

I would change the upper control arms to the '73 and up style.
Easiest, best, and safest way.
DON'T try to shove some shim stock in between the ball joint taper and the spindle taper.
 
You can use the adapters for the ball joint studs or get 73-76 arms. I believe I have a spare pair of caliper adapters.
