    Yes but they are universal kits and they will not fit like a stock unit. It will take some artwork (good mechanical planning and execution) to make it work and look great.

    It's a univeral kit, so you'll have to do some maneuvering here and there to get it working - like Paul said. Still doable - I have one on a '77 250.
