    Can anyone help me out with info on the interchangeablity of B-body suspension parts? Specifically rear control/trailing arms and polyurethane bushing kits. Nobody specifically lists aftermarket/performance parts for a 66 Lesabre, but will Impala or other more popular GM parts interchange?

    I don't think they are interchangeable, there isn't much off of a Chevy that fits on a Buick. I haven't got the proof though. There's nothing outside of Buick in my interchange books, but that doesn't mean there isn't something that does interchange. I'm sure someone has an old Hollander Interchange laying about. The best thing to do is take measurements if you can, and get them to send dimensions.

    Sorry I can't be of more help.

    Corporate interchange on the full size (Fisher B) started with 1971 models. Before then, there was much more divisional specific parts in regards to suspension. A Hollander will be your best bet, if you can find an old one. Have access to several at local yard, but most are Body Sections only.
