Correct me if i'm wrong here, but a '72 K frame does NOT fit on a '73, correct?

I know they went to the isolated k frame in 73, but if I wasn't concerned about the isolators on the k frame would the 72 frame bolt up?

Doubtful, the upper control arms mount completely different between the two years.  On 73 and up, the mount if part of the k-frame and not the body like 72 and older.

You could resell it for big monay, or sell it to a member here for the price you paid + shipping  :2thumbs:
