I've decided to try DDS restorations trick of stacking or squeezing in the threads.
Thanks to all that replied.

Ok, I'm not having much luck on the 67 (ONLY) 4 bolt UCA front.

This is a two part wanted ad.
What are people asking for their FoMoCo, unrusted UCAs with verified decent pivot threads?
Even if you don't have them currently I'm wondering what the market is asking.

If someone has a couple for sale PM me here or bossbill (the at sign) comcast (add the dot net bit). Gouges near the BJ ok.

No. 65/66 are different from 67 and will not interchange. 67- 70 are interchangeable however they have different details that set them apart from each other.

The 67-68 control arm is wider than 65-66, big difference when put side by side.

Is there a difference between '67 and '68?

Reply # 3 - 67- 70 are interchangeable however they have different details that set them apart from each other. For instance in the 70's the 1970 3 rivet version was Fords replacement for 67,68 and 69.

So how would I tell a '67 from a '68?

A 68-70 has the nose shaved for tire clearance
