So I’ve been reading more about up grading to 73-87 control arms/bushings. Since I have all my ‘72 new ball joints and cross shafts ready to go can I get a 73-87 LCA and put my ‘72 cross shafts in the 73-87 LCA?

No.
The 73-87 arms take a different cross shaft with rubber bushings.
But you CAN put your ‘72 balljoints in the later control arms.
