Be careful as there are sets of Maverick tiedowns that look VERY similar to the parts your looking for but are shorter, its hard to tell without a side by side comparison.

Preaction: Will do. The bolts won't line up correctly or what should I look for ? Are they stamped with the part no ?

Dealers were supposed to remove the brackets and return them to the assembly plants. Some dealers did, they tossed them in a barrel and eventually they got returned. That was the "theory". Many were left on cars as well. For a variety of reasons, I can't believe a different bracket would be used on a Maverick, but after 50 years, who knows. Ask Marcus. He did a lot of research into them.

I promise to be politically correct in all my posts to keep the BBBB from vociferating.

They are very much the same bolts holes and shape just shorter overall.

No part number. Don't want to make this too easy.
