Yeah, should be the same. Just make sure all the bushings & balljoints are in good shape or replace them. Get the master & brake lines if you can. The lower A arm on the '82 has two Ubolts that bolt the round bushing bar to the crossmember. My '66 has 4 bolts that bolt a sorta flat bar to the crosmember. I had to drill out one hole on each end of the bar out to 9/16" and the other holes had to be re-drilled about 9/16" closer & out to 9/16". I hope this makes sense. It might be easier to swap out the lower bars if the '71 is round. Especially if you replace bushings. I don't know what the '71 looks like. Maybe you can just swap out spindles?
I didn't check just swapping spindles, because my bushings & balljoints were good & I wanted to mount the swaybar.
