Original Strut Rods

Bold & Old · Mar 23, 2021

I have been working on my 67 R/T front end suspension.

My question is are all B body strut rods the same length 1966 thru 1969 and will it work on my 67?

I have a slight bend in one of my strut rods and want to replace it in kind.

Thanks to all in advance. :thumbsup:

Not sure. I replaced mine with thicker stronger ones from Mancini Racing. They were too long and I had them turned down on a lathe, but they've changed the length on them now so they fit ok.

I believe they are the same length from 62-72. The control arms all physically interchange.

I've been using their strut rods as well. The first set I got from them must have been from the same batch as yours. The shoulder had to be cut down in a lathe to work. Funny, I called them at the time and was told they hadn't heard of any issues. They have since had another batch made and they fit perfect with no mods. So I guess I wasn't the only one...

That BS line gets used all the time...."We haven't had any complaints....you are the first one to mention this..."
I hate that.
