Can anyone confirm that this swaybar and A arm setup will work with 72 911 suspension?

Those are 74-89 underbody sway bars. These will only work if you have the aluminum cross-member, rear tie-connectors and underbody specific sway bar bushing brackets that mount to the rear tie connectors.
You need the full system to run that sway bar. The a-arms by themselves will work. If you want to run a through-body sway bar, cut off the sway bar mounts and have the new drop link mount welded (better) or bolted in place. |

You need the full system to run that sway bar. I beg to differ. I just drilled and threaded a hole for the mounting bracket into the steel crossmember.  I kept the steel tube crossmember because if fit better with the rad hoses, otherwise stock 911 susp. |
