To do a complete job, you'll need a '64 differential and rear A-arms, as 
well as the rear coil springs and cross-leaf spring and it's links and 
bushings. The '62 A-arms can easily be modified, but I would just swap in a 
whole '64 rear crossmember with backing plates and drums too. Buy a '64 
parts car with the same kind of tranny as your car and you're in business.

yea, Vairily ... Shaun

Can anyone lead me to any articles with a good discussion of what is 
involved in putting a 64 or later rear suspension in a 62 Spyder?  I have 
read ads for cars with such, but I have no idea what is involved.  I will be 
dropping my drive train soon to rebuild/clean up and figured I would redo 
the suspension at the same time.  Any reason not to "upgrade" to the later 
suspension?

Thanks,
