This is just my guess; 72 was the end of a body style run. 73 had a completely different heating system. I doubt that Ford would have changed anything for 1 year.

That's what I think, but the part numbers are different 1972 is D2TZ-19959-B, and the 1971 is D2TZ-19959-A :doh: :hmm:

It is about the time that ford when from a flaired fitting to o ring. That may be the change. My 71 has the flaired fitting. I bet 72 had the o ring.
