Welcome to FBBO. Always love to see another Canuck join the forum. You'd get better results if you posted in the classified section of the forum.

Please send me a PM on how much you want.
i have the hood which has a ton of rust but I want to see if its repairable or not by any shops, if I can repair it then I would only need an insert
On another note hoping someone could give me some assistance in understanding how these measurements work
I cant figure out what starting points are on K frame and frame rails. We installed the new frame rail this weekend on drivers side using the K-FRame to ensure bolts lined up but I want to be sure height is ok and distance closer to the cross member

I don't claim to be an expert and I'll probably overlook something but to me it appears that the rear part of the K-member occurs at point "B" with a measurement of 37.86" from point "L" Then there's the measurement of 52.80" that starts at L and appears to go to the center of the front "arm" of the K-member. Now, I didn't see any measurement listed for distance between the front cross-member and the K-frame, that being said, I believe the drawing is assuming you will line up the K members with the measurements given from point "L". Also note the measurement from point "D" to point "B" diagonally across is 51.73".
Note that Point B is referenced from along a construction line intersecting with the location of the front springs. Even more simply put, point B is 13.21" away from the center of the K-member.
I do not believe height will be an issue here unless the frame rails are screwy or the K-member has been modified. It should just set right into place at be at the stock height.
I hope this helps you out, if you other guys see I've screwed up please correct me for the sake of velrob's Charger!
