GM A body front control arms??

Will a 1966 GTO control arms fit a 1969 Cutlass?
I know that the 69 cutlass and 442 A arms use a oval bushing in the lower. What year arms are the same across the GM A body? Is there any issues going from the oval to the round bushing control arms?
Thanks

The oval and round bushing arms will interchange. The only difference is that the oval bushings provide more compliance in the fore-aft direction for a smoother ride over bumps and potholes (with the downside that the increased compliance will make handling less precise).

Once again, posting the same question in multiple forums is not a good choice. It's in your own best interest to keep all responses in a single thread.
