To begin with, 72 had 5 lugs all around.

The only question you need to know is why it has 6 lugs on a 2 wheel drive 72 model they came with 5? If he can't answer that then walk away.

Look under the truck right behind the rear cab mounts, look for the frame to be welded up form being cut down.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
