64 trailing arms.
Can anyone tell me if 63,64 and 65-up rear trailing arms are interchangeble. can i mount the original drum brake setup on the 65-up arms. there are lot of rebuild 65-79 arms available but not the 63/64. I want to swap them out without having to wait for the rebuild time.
Thanks, Frank.

63-64 trailing arms are a little different due to the disc v drum changes to the parking brake brackets and the bumper stops. The 65 and up arm could work with a few mods. Why not just buy new 63-64 arms which are readily available?

Call these guys. Great reputation with friends and Forum guys who have used them and they may have the 64's in stock. There is a difference between 63/64 and the 65 up due to the disc brakes.

Called / emailed Bairs and they will put together a set of arms for my 64, ship them and refund any applicable core charge.That way I can do the job all in one day and not be without my car. I drive it everyday. Thanks for the address. They have a LOT of parts.
