Does anyone know which models have k frames that interchange with a 73 satellite? My k frame is rusted out on the back side of the back tabs. I think it could be fixed but would prefer to get one all ready to swap over before tearing my car apart. Not getting bites on my WTB so looking for some info on what to search for on junk yard sites and other sources. Im doing a big block swap but currently running a 318 so I would settle for either style.
73 Plymouth Satellite K Frame interchange?

Would also consider other options. Not sure if anyone knows of aftermarket solutions. Was really looking to keep costs to a minimum. Car is a weekend driver, not likely to ever see the track or do any racing.
This side is the worst. My thought was to have a new tab welded on. I have connections at a steel fabrication shop that I think could make repair pieces and weld them in. The rest is either covered in undercoating or seems solid under surface rust.

Not sure on the 75 RR or the Furys but yes on the others.
Magnum not monoco..
I think 73-78 b bodies all have isolated k members. Should be able to use a later model cordoba, charger or magnum on a 73.
I think the only difference is the later cars have a bigger bushing for the strut rod. So best get them two.

Correct. I missed that.

K frames are different between big block and small block. I have both available, but I am in Wyoming. $150 small block, $250 big block. Plus shipping, and that could get expensive.
