Being just out of college and getting married in a year my small budget for my 72 Satellite build is getting smaller.
Right now I am looking at purchasing suspension.
(Drive train: 400-a/t ((I hope)), 3.23 open gear)

Control arms -stock
Torsion Bars - stock (P# 776, 777 I believe)
Sway bars- Still looking for something I can afford
Springs- Mopar 440+6/Hemi HD stock replacement (the ones on the car fell apart as I took them off)
Shocks- KYB Excel-G Gas shocks http://www.summitracing.com/parts/kyb-343159/overview/

Was also looking at Competition Engineering Adjustable http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cee-2620/overview/
but they are almost twice the price and I dont know if I need the adjustablility

Any suggestions on budget shocks or budget sway bars?
 
If you have u-pull yards, look for 75 and up Chargers and Cordobas. (I think Fury, too).

The rear sway bar and mounts are the same. I think almost all of them had them as well.

I know it's a long shot but the do turn up every now and then (about one per 10-12 months around here).

...and the last one I got only cost complete including some other misc parts from the interior and engine compartment.
 
I have a rear sway bar from a 75 Charger with the plates... the links are broken as is typical and will have to be fixed or replaced... here is the link to my local for sale add on kijiji:

If interested, keep in mind I'm in Canada and shipping may be high and you may likely be able to find one closer to you.
 
I thought the 73-up say bars were not comparable on the 71-72? I am miss informed?
 
Put the suspension parts in your wedding gift registry... I am sure your bride will be equally enthused! lol
 
Rear bars B body 71- 76 should all fit front bars are different 71- 72 & 73-76

The locating holes in the plate will need to have a large washer welded in or there is a ISO eliminator kit available from FirmFeel I beleive

as mentioned the front antisway bars are completely different and cannot be interchanged 71-72 and 73+
