73 beam on a 71 EB...Can it be done?

[wriggs]

Hi folks,

will a 73 lowered beam fit a 71 early bay?

Ta...

think it is bolt on - only the very early bays 67-69 ish had the split bolt pattern afaik.

are you keeping your outer 'bits' ie wide 5 or is the intention to get discs?

the only snag I can think of is the brake parts, mine is a 72 and didn't have a servo or fitting for it on the beam.

hth?

Its fine .... just note how its lowered ....

I would give the the chaps at T2D a call they might be able to advice.

Looking at pics I've seen it looks like cut and turn. Weld looks solid enough
