The 69.5 Mavericks used a smaller Falcon-style tunnel but the 70 and up Mavericks have a much larger tunnel and several people have done the swap, I haven't heard anyone say they had clearance problems. -CP
: this subject made the rounds in the ford falcon circles. im not sure how it applies to the maverick, but could be the same.
: it can be done, but the AOD is physically larger and cutting on or modification to the transmission tunnels had to be done to install in a falcon. from what i understand there are a few other quarks to making this adaptation. (namely shifter linkage, but i think there are several others) i will do some research and report my findings as time allows.
: bear in mind, my info comes from the falcon community, but i doubt there is much difference.
