DUMB QUESTION

[DREDILSKI]

I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A DUMB QUESTION, HOPEFULLY YOU GUYS CAN HELP. 
WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A-BODY, E-BODY, ETC. ( IF SOMEONE COULD, EXPLAIN ALL OF THEM)
WHICH ONE IS THE EASIEST TO FIND PARTS FOR AND WHICH IS THE HARDEST?
I HAVE A 1973 DODGE CHARGER S/E, WHAT IS IT?


THANKS FOR THE HELP, WHOEVER CAN.       DRE

A Body: darts/dusters/demons/64-69 barracudas/valiants

B Body: chargers/coronets/satellites/roadrunners/superbees/daytonas/gtx/sport satellite

C Body: fury's/newports/new yorkers/monaco/imperial/

E Body: challenger/70-74 barracuda

you have a B-body.  A bodies are smaller in size.  The B bodies are probably easier to find parts for.

because i need a-body front spindals to run disc brakes
will they fit on my 68 charger

Agree to a degree. I think it's easier to find used parts for B-Bodies but E-Bodies have more reproduction parts available.

Where did the A B C  and E thing come from? Why no D?

Chrysler also produced F, J, K, and M bodies in the 70's and 80's.

YEAH, The Australian Valient is based on the A body.  I know nothing of the Aussie suspension
though.  73 to 76 A body (USA) disk brake spindles are what you need for a disk brake conversion. 
The whole package from the junkyard is the way to go.  Master cylinder, prop valve & brakes from
the donor make it a snap.  Be sure to rebuild everything.
