GM put discs on trucks as standard equipment starting in 71. If your truck is truely a 72, the front suspension was robbed to be put under an earlier truck & that suspension was swapped back under yours. The other possiblity is the truck frame/suspension is earlier w/a later body on it.
To get discs up front w/o spending for a kit, hit your local wrecking yard (or search Craigslist for your area) for a 71-80 GM truck getting parted out. The parts will easily swap over to your current frame.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
