I was thinking of modifying my lower control arm to take a ball joint from a mustang.?

anybody tried something like this?

i was also wondering if the lower control arm from a newer model AMC that acceptts the different patterned ball joint would interchange?

EX..72 Jav

 is the taper of the joint different?                                T.Y

Check this thread on using cheap 70 up ball joints on the early lower control arm. http://theamcforum.com/forum/6869-after-market-ball-joints_topic66726.html

There are differences in the lower arms 69 & older & 70 & newer. One has to do with the shock mounting, no hole for shocks in the later arms.
