Will and E body manual box fit an A body?
« on: April 21, 2006, 10:49:33 PM »

I found a decent deal on a manual box out of a 71 Challenger. I know the pitman won't work, but if I get the right arm, can I use it in my 73 Dart?

Thanks

Would I be able to use my PS pitman arm on the manual box, or are the manual boxes unique to themselves?

PS pitman arm worked on my B-body when I did the manual swap, I'm assuming (and hoping!) that it will be the same when I do the same swap on my Swinger Smiley

Well, I check the part numbers, the manual steering part# is different from the power steering part#. I ended up passing on the box because it would get tight in the center of the lock to lock.

If i remember right, i took the manual box off of my 71 challenger and bolted it on the 68 dart and used the pitman arm that was on the dart. (power steering, /6)
