it applies to all 75s no matter what year, Ford made the change across the board, Mav, Comets Granda, Monarchs. They standardized all those cars. Power or manual, personal choice, big difference is the driver's side valve cover is tight with power. The car is so light that the power brakes just aren't needed and they limit the cam choices if you want to get radical., No vaccuum for them to wrong properly. Unless you know now good a complete set of brake setups are, never use the rotors or calibers unless they're inspected and rebuilt. I have raced with bad brakes and it'll test your pucked power. If you don't have good/proper brakes at least have a good life insurance policy. Someone will be collecting on it.


:that apply to other donor cars or just the maverick?

:::I think I know what I need but please tell me what you've learned to help me through the swap. I found a 75 2 door with disc but it's clear that the spindles are about all that I could use/want to use. However;I plan on taking all the parts from the brake system of the donor car. Aah what ever, I know the answer. Look back in the Archives! I need to know the pros and cons of power and manual, in that my car is manual and I don't know if the 75 is or not. Any comment! help! or even comments! would be cool. Thanks a million
