I just rebuilt my '64 Dodge coupler a few days ago. I had a kit here with the orange coloured seal. I found that the only things usable for the early coupler were the two shoes. The early coupler is a different shape than the later one, which is what the repro kit is meant to.service. Even the shoe spring clip is a different design, and will not fit the early coupler. The seal and retainer are a different shape.I was lucky enough to have another early coupler that still.had a pretty good seal and retainer that I was able to reuse on my rebuild.
