Coolant System Diagnosis 140-160 1972

This is still a battle with my gauges and I've created a new mess. I've soldered my blue wire back to the circuit board, replaced everything, and went for a test drive. The gas gauge was sort-of working and as I drove I noticed the temperature gauge would occasionally sort of click as if it wanted to go forward but then wouldn't move. After returning home I removed the cluster again and removed the stabilizer and found that the red wire was broken from its connector so now I have to fix it. When I did this I looked at the two stabilizers I have and noticed there are two different numbers on them. One is from my '72 and the other is from a '73. Which number is the correct one for my '72, does it matter? Also any suggestions on making something to replace the stabilizer holder, the rubber is shot and the stabilizer keeps falling off of the back of the dashboard. Does that affect the function?
