: The staggered shocks were a mid-year change, most '70 cars that aren't 69.5 have staggered shocks. Also, all '70 cars are 2-doors (you probably knew that but your post didn't:)) -CP

: : You must use your original spring perches & shock mounts because the later models have staggared shocks & the '70 does not...you 'might' need the driveshaft from a later model 2-door Maverick (if yours is a 2-door)...

: : : My 1970 MAverick has a 6 3/4 inch rear in it left over from the Comet and Fairlane days. I found a 4 door Maverick with an 8 inch with 5 lug spindles. Can these directly replace mine with minor mods? Any help would be appreciated.
