: : : : : : : are all maverick five-lug rearends 8"?
: : : : : : :yes, 5lug were normally for V-8s or taxis for more strength.
: : : : : I asked because my 74 6cyl is an original five-lug---seemed a bit odd!
;some 6cyl. had 5 lug, 8" rearends because it was an "option" not the norm. Just like seats, colors, trim, P/S, P/B, A/C, manual trans. You might even find one with a 302, floor shift 4spd. You just never know.
Standard model was 250 eng, auto trans, column shift, P/S, maybe AC depends on dealer order.
