Re: [AMC-List] Front Shocks for 63 American

[eddie walker <thematadorman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Any mopar from 1955-1988 except A body 1962-1974 with drum brakes (valiant, barracuda, lancer, swinger,scamp etc.) will work .  A bodies with disc brakes had the bigger 5 X 4 1/2 .They were all 5 X 4 1/2 including trucks, vans Ramchargers.. Truck and Ramchargers and vans went to a 5X5 in mid to late 80's.I think 85 or 86. I am not sure.
I have 1969 dodge Polara rims on my 77 Matador and 62 Dodge rims on my Concord.
  Almost all Ramchargers had 15 X 8 rims in the 70's and were an option on trucks. Dodge Magnum had slotted 15 X 7 and had a center cap. Police cars and taxis had slotted 15 X 7 and hubcaps...Super Coupes, Kit Cars, and Little Red Express trucks were 15 X 8 and were slotted with chrome on the trucks......lots of them out there ......eddie walker

just a note - amc had station wagon wheels as wide as 15x6, around
'70. also, mopar wheels abruptly changed in the mid '60s and later
ones definitely have smaller hubcaps, but up to '65 or '66 i believe
[haven't confirmed] they take the same size as amc. they have plenty
of 15x6" and 14x6.5" from the late '50s and early '60s and even a
pickup 15x8" which is 5x4.5" and takes hubcaps.
