Impala rearend won't fit.
A rear from any of these '68-'72 vehicles will fit:
Oldsmobile Cutlass / 442
Chevrolet Chevelle, Malibu, El Camino, Monte Carlo
Buick Skylark, GS
Pontiac LeMans, Tempest, GTO, Gran Prix

With the caveat that you MIGHT need a different length driveshaft.

Well I knew the perches would be because they are farther apart. I was thinking that I read that the shock mounts were on the opposite side of the axle from the A body mounts (front to back).
