WANTED '66 Compatable Stub Frame

[Stev]

I got a '66 polara and as you can see my Stub is certified junk, looking for a replacement in the PNW area. Willing to go as far as oregon but that's about it, ideally here in Canada though. Mostly concerned about the metal as I expect to renew all the bushings anyway. I wan to put some serious power through this thing so discs would be nice as well but I can't be picky.

Anything at the yard in Oliver, BC?

I wasn't aware there were any yards worth looking at after pick a part closed (and Wasney's, but that's ford only).

Oliver Recycling & Salvage LTD | Oliver, BC

You talking about these guys?

 

[Ross Wooldridge]

Honestly, I don't remember the name just that they had a lot of old stuff. I also didn't know that they were closed... it was a long time ago!

Pick a Part closed. But they're leaving the fabled duster in place for posterity. Never heard of a good yard in the interior though.

If you don't find anything closer, check out Wildcat Mopars in Sandy, Oregon.

If you want to switch to discs at the same time, look for a stub out of any model 1969 Dodge or Chrysler with discs. Also a 1970 Dodge or Chrysler wagon or convertible. Another option would be a 1969-70 Plymouth stub out of any body style, but it will need to be complete with the shorter Plymouth only torsion bars. The shorter bars will give a slightly stiffer ride. On the subject of torsion bars, any car with factory air and all wagons will have the heavy duty bars.

Hitting the jackpot would be finding a car with a good stub and a dual diaphragm booster that you can grab for the disc conversion.

I have this out of a 1970 Chrysler 300.
It is rust and damage free.!!!!!
I’m pulling the the motor and disc brake parts. Torsion bars have been sold already.
Located in Northern California.
You can have it for FREE if you come pick it up

 

[bigmoparjeff]

Sorry Sarge, that one won't work.

It's an isolated stub. He needs the solid mount.

If you had one out of a 1970 300 convertible, it would be correct for his car.

I'm sure someone could use it. The isolated stubs rot out even worse than the non-isolated ones do.

It's already got a booster. Not dual, but pretty effective regardless, and I'm used to fully manual brakes on half my junk anyway, so power anything is dandy. I'm certainly putting a dual master on though. A '67 dual unit should bolt on right?

Would a '69 dodge polara stub work for me? I've seen conflicting accounts on if they will or not.

 

[LocuMob]

A '67 dua

Yep, that will work.

 

[bigmoparjeff]

Most people who have tried say that the stock drum brake booster isn't adequate for disc brakes.

The '69 Polara stub will bolt right in.

It's possible that you will need to drill a few new bolt holes for small brackets.

Parting a 66 Windsor not sure if the frame will work?

That will work.

That'd work, and I appreciate it. But Edmonton's a little further than I'm willing to go.
