Yep...KINGMOPAR is dead on....
I'm looking at the '73 service manual as I type this and just walked back up from the shop where there is an original '73 Sport sitting on jackstands.......they're forward mounted...and the setup is as he describes above.
I've been tempted on my '72 Swinger to convert it completely to the '73 setup, but haven't done it....yet.
