I have a 70 charger and I am going to replace the front frame rail with a  new AMD frame rail.

My shock tower and fender well looks good. Any tips, tricks, photos of replacing the frame rail ? Thanks!

The fit looked great, and the frames looked to be exact. So my question is why? Was there something wrong with the frame rail that I can't see? Great pic's of the fit.

With everything else we were already replacing it was deemed easier (read less $$'s in labour for me to pay for) to do the entire rail than fix 45 years of clutch dumping damage to the rail. I would have fixed the rail if I was doing the work myself.
