Download the SourceRPM for Fedora and install the source

rpm -ivh firefox-xxxx-src.rpm

then go to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and edit the spec file, change the toolkit to 
gtk and then rebuild the RPM

rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/firefox.spec

You should after a good whiles waiting get a RPM that works with RH7.3.

Keep in mind that some key combinations will have changed, as Gnome2/gtk2 
blocks some of the default key combinations, so the *nix version will always 
get different combinations than what other versions has.
