Re: 1960-62 Front Suspension Upgrade
You do realize that the '63 frame is the same as the '64-'66 frames correct? It is not the same as the '60-'62 X member frames

Re: 1960-62 Front Suspension Upgrade
What about the bottom 3 bolts? Did any of them line up? Or needed to be oblonged?

Re: 1960-62 Front Suspension Upgrade
I have a '62 and installed a '63 front axle,
if I remember correctly, the outer ones had to be re-drilled.

Re: 1960-62 Front Suspension Upgrade
I made a drilling jig to mount a squarebody front end 1" forward. I can post a scale/dimensioned pic if you want.

Re: 1960-62 Front Suspension Upgrade
Finally got off my butt and measured the jig I used. Hope this helps someone in the future.
It's full size, so just print it, glue or tape it onto some metal, center-punch and drill.
