Whoops, I threw away my 72 mounts instead of the 77s it looks like, so right now for my 72 I’m attempting to line up the pair from the 77. The top mounts line up on the frame rails, and the bottom holes don't line up for the cross member mount. I can drill some holes in the cross member and be done with it right? They’re a 1/2 closer together than they should be but there's plenty of tolerance for that. Also isn’t there a benefit to using later model mounts?
