SORRY DONALD.. I HAVE TO DISAGREE. 73 UP STANDS ARE TALLER & REQUIRE ABOUT A 1" SPACER ON THE TOP OF THE FRAME RAIL ON OEM CROSSMEMBER ASSY.s (BEEN THERE.. DONE THAT). NOW IF THE CROSSMEMBER ASSY. HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A 73 UP TO GET THE DISC. BRAKES... SURE.. THEY'LL BOLT RIGHT IN. OTHERWISE PEOPLE WOULD BE USING THESE $20 STANDS INSTEAD OF PAYING $200 FOR THE 72 ONLY BB STANDS.
