WTB 1962-65 B Body Front & Rear Torque Boxes

[65PlymSatellite]

Hello All,

Looking for a set of Torque boxes for my '65 Satellite. I know you can get these new, but thought I'd ask in case someone has a set they never got around to using or something.

Thanks!

I should! How’d you make those holes? Did you punch them out?

Did you also make those upper shock tower braces?

Did you also make those upper shock tower braces?

No. Those are from USCT. They sent me a second set also as the first set was not fitting to my liking. Good for them!
I did not use the rear torque boxes as I have the springs in line with the frame rails. I also fabbed a panhard bar to locate the axle housing. The stock housing shown is not what is in the car now. I went to a Moser fabricated housing. If I were to go back in time I should have gone right to a Strange 60. What's that saying about hindsight?
