I didn't see you were a 4x4, I suppose thats the point of putting a transfer case in the description lol.

They should fit the 72 without issue, but truthfully I don't know how the 4wd changes your clearances. BUT I'm curious, because Doug does list one for 4wd

Those are SBC headers. The biggest issue with my particular setup is how far back against the firewall and how low the engine is.

Canīt see it on the picture, do they come with o2 sensor fittings?
No that is the only down fall. you will need to weld a couple bungs in, but the bungs can be had for a couple bucks to it not a big deal. I am really happy with them.

Contacted the local Hedman dealer and got a quote for hedders. Hold on to your hats gents: 1800$ shipped to Sweden. I had to ask twice to make sure we were talking about the same thing:-)

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.

Those are sexy! and fit great looking at your pictures.

Did you get the 1 7/8" ones? is that all they have? did you do the catback as well?
