1. Check the factory K Member for signs of fatigue, the pivot points for the lower control arms and the mounting points for the steering box. If you want to visually check , get someone to sit in the car and turn the steering wheel full left to right and see if the box moves. You will see the box deflect if the k frame is weak there.

Personally, if you have the option to gusset the k-frame including bracing the LCA mount I think it is a must. Both my cars now have welded and gusseted k-frames.

3. Install factory Lower control arms with sway-bar mounts. Much better than aftermarket.

My '74 has ball joint sway bar connectors using the stock LCA sway bar mounts.

Those were shortened as much as possible. My plan for the '73 is to try and use an L shaped link and modify the LCA that doesn't have a bracket. I want a link that doesn't need to be modified in case it needs to be replaced.

A link like this:
