1972 Maverick

In 1972 was there a Maverick had with a 250 6 cylinder and 5 lug suspension?

 

yes ...all the ones i have seen in 72 with a 250 was 5 lug

 

My wife owns a late '72 with a 250" 6 and hers has 4 lug wheels...
Any reason for this? Some were with and others without?

 

I have never seen a 5 lug factory 250 '72, but several 4 lugs...

 

I have also owned several 1972 Mavericks with a 250....and none of them were a 5-lug. I would say they were all 4-lug as well. Only the V-8's got 5-lugs in 1972.

 

We found one like this but it is too expensive and I was just curious

 

my 72 sprint has been converted to disc fronts. i wasn't aware if the rear had been changed, but it has 5 lugs.

 

mine was a 250 6cyl grabber with 5 lug ...neals was a 250 with 5 lug ....like said all the 72s i have seen with the 250 had 5 lug maybe the plant a guy told me when he worked at not sure what plant ...but he said all the 250 and 302 mavs got the same parts as far as springs and all that

 

Maybe it had something to do with which plant it was built at...

 

Maybe HD suspension got 5-lug?

 

How do you identify heavy duty suspension?

 

It would be on your Marti Report, original invoice or sticker price or 999 letter. As far as I know HD suspension was 3-leaf on 2-doors and 4-leaf on 4-doors ...

 

I always thought that the 250 air condition cars came with the 5 lug.

 

I would agree with Dan in that it was probably part of the HD suspension option which could probably be ordered on any car regardless of engine.

 

According to the VIN and information Neal put on his application when he joined the Maverick Comet Club International, Inc. his car was originally a 200 6 cyl car. Maybe somebody changed it to 5-lugs before he bought it?
