Thanks.

Yes

Only if it's an A Body rear.
Full size doesn't work.

Good catch Mike. :thumbsup:

68-72 A body 12 bolts are dimensionally the same. 65-67 rears will work, but are 1" narrower and requie spring perch mounts.

The 67 being the exception, has a spring locator not a bolt plate such as the 64-66. Would like to know the approximate dates of this change.
