Hey guys , my 2014 ss has be totalled am looking at repairing it , am based in the UK so I Havnt got access to alot of the parts or it would cost a hell of alot to ship the parts over

I have found a 2013 v6 2LT auto , front subframe with suspension set up , I know the suspension set up is different . Would I be able to do a straight swap and put this on to the 2014 SS or atleast just the subframe alone ?

Thanks guys will attach a picture so you can see the damage

I will be using the V6 front fender and door aswell shouldn't have any issue with these should be a straight swap ?

The front subframe should be the same but the struts and springs will be a different rate and height. Pretty sure the sway bars are different too, but now would be the time to upgrade all those pieces anyway.
