So... with respect to the wheel ends, brake components, etc. what was
special about the '74 & '75 models? I'm sure I remember someone pointing out
a particular improvement regarding the last two years of the D line, but
can't remember what it was. Maybe it was further up the drive train? or a
change in suspension, or... ??

Thanks again...
