    My brown 72 looked like that too but not sure about the washer or the eyebrows @ the lca mount holes. My black 72 340 3 speed duster has the washer and the eye brows but has a closed bottom k and torque boxes.

    My brown 72 I just sold had the 67 to 72 mounts with the open bottom k frame...it was a late 72 maybe even the very last one. It was a 318 with ac and has 892/893 torsion bars too and called for them on the build sheet.

    Question on '70 column, lower bushing?

    The only time that bearing is necessary is with a split shaft,like in 4x4 trucks or maybe something with a lot of shaft outside the column.

    Slapper Bars

    I think yours (op)are fine the way they are. I run them on several of my cars and trucks and like them better than the snubber mainly because they don't beat the crap out of the underside of my cars....really can't tell a difference in performance between the snubber and bars and I do track and...

    Torsion bars

    yeah with the small bars you'll get a lot more lift in the front end on punch...but you'll also scrape the road with your headers more.

    Checking Torsion Bar Anchors- is impending doom obvious?

    68 sway bar vs 73 sway bar

    you have to use a 73 up k frame...the bar goes through the k frame,and you'll need a set of 73 & up lcas with the tabs on em.
