Do I need the widebody spindles ?
I have the entire kit with fender liners 305s mud guards clips and screws.
what else am I missing ? Will I be okay on the front struts? I heard WB cars have a bit stiffer strut.

The wheels are the only difference from a normal body drivetrain.

They did make changes on the Charger when they went from 19 (reg body) to 20 (wide body), different shock programming, stiffer springs, larger sway bars, switch from hydraulic to electric steering assist. All of which, if I had to guess, is perfectly compatible with the widebody parts. But, I realize you cannot guess of course. Checking parts numbers between the 2 years should help separate fact from the FCA press kit talking points.

The best way would be to have the last 8 of a widebody VIN and the last 8 of your VIN. Find a nice parts guy and see if he can compare some part numbers from either car.

I doubt he is looking to completely replicate the car down to the spec. I assume he just wants to get it together and running. I doubt he would even notice the difference.
