Chrysler-Designed Front Wheel Drive Body Types
MOPAR BODY TYPES (v. 11.24.98) compiled by and copyright Ed Hennessy as of 1998.
Post 1998 additions and reorganizations by Allpar.
Beginning in 1989, body designators became two letters, with most existing designators becoming 'Ax' where 'x' was the original one-letter name. (This page only lists the Ax codes).
Based on the K or extended K platform (EEKs)
Actual K body code, 1981-1989:
These are cars built with very similar architectures, but having different wheelbases and suspension tuning. Interiors could be completely different and body styles often were, but there was a clear family resemblance and many components tended to be interchangeable.
Pages devoted to these cars may be found by clicking on the code in most cases.
Other cars
BD (Plymouth Laser and Eagle Talon) ST, and FJ (Stratus coupe, Sebring coupe, Avenger coupe) were restyled Mitsubishi Eclipses and are not included.
Edward Martelle pointed out:
Minivans were Plymouth Voyager and Dodge Caravan; Grand Voyager and Grand Caravan (extended wheelbase models) started 1989 and Chrysler Town & Country (extended) started 1990.
