Ima wait. Found a 5 lug posi 373 rearend in town for 375$ its set up for coil springs..but is from a 60-66 model chevy 2wd
No. Maybe. It depends.
Has your entire crossmember been changed out?
Or just the spindles out?

There's a tab welded to the crossmember in the spot where steel lines convert to rubber lines.
The 71-72 trucks have this tab on the opposite side of the crossmember than what your truck has.
(Unless the entire crossmember has been swapped. I don't know what you have)

You will need to order pre-bent lines that are correct for the year of truck you have. If you order 71-72 lines you will need a tab welded on in that location, since they are different. (unless you swapped crossmembers)
I don't know whats been swapped on your truck.
Like I said, explain what you have to ECE and they will send you the correct parts.
