Will the following uni-body parts from a 4door 1969 Coronet fit onto my 2door 1969 Charger?
Or where can I find out?

front and rear frame rails
rear leaf spring mounts
trunk pan
trunk floor extensions
inner and outer wheel house
front and rear floor pans
floor pan supports
torsion bar crossmember
inner and outer rockers
upper and lower radiator supports

Thanks
 
Trunk pan and trunk extensions are different. Everything else on your list is the same.

Is the AMD catalog a good reference to find interchanability?
I see in there catalog that they show different trunk pan and extensions. But I wonder how accurate they are with 4 doors? Like maybe they don't list a difference because they dont make the part! For instance the inner and outer rockers.
I have a chance to buy a 69 4door Coronet, but want to be sure I can use the uni-body parts!
 
AMD is faily accuerate. I told them for years that a 69 and 70 did NOT have the same battery tray. See that they finally changed that. AMD does not list anything about 4-doors but that means nothing. I cut alot of 4-doors and have spent the last 10 years on inter-change for myself. 62-70B 4-dr and 2-dr shair the same pans and frames. 71-4 4-dr has different trunk and under rear seat pans.
68-70 Charger do have different trunk pan and extension than other B's. Trunk pan is due to the Chargers fuel tank fill tube. You can use the 4-dr rockers but you'll have the remove the B pillar and patch the rocker there.
Snag the Coronet and drill away. Nothing fits better than original Mopar metal.
 
Thanks moparmarks,
I am planning on going to look at the car, just want to know what parts will work.
The guy mentioned that it had the heavy duty front suspension that went on the RT cars. Something about the swaybar? Do you know what he is talking about?
Was there a rear sway bar in those cars?
 
Ya it could have a front sway bar but thats not a big deal other than its a free sway bar setup. Won't have the same T-bars as an R/T. Rear sways did not start on B's til 72 except for cop cars.

Remove the B pillar? You mean the door jamb on the Charger right?
Sounds like a pain in the rear. Any right ups on this?
 
No the B pillar is the jam between the front and rear doors on the 4-dr. Would have to remove that and patch the rocker where it was welded if you want to use those rockers on your Charger.
