The 1967 idler arm has a stud on the pivot end and the K-member has one tab. I replaced the idler arm on my 1967 Dart and it seemed like it needed replaced again within a couple of years. I'm going to replace the whole K-member and suspension with disc brakes from a 1973 340 Duster with the spool engine mounts. I'd probably switch to the 1973-6 spool mount K-member. The sway bar is different as it goes through the K-member. I'm not sure if the 1968-1972 idler arm could be adapted by welding on another tab for a double shear arrangement with a thru bolt?
