It just may not be obvious to us, 35 years after the fact, as there may have been other constraints we cannot see now (build location, part proliferation, option constraints, interaction with other components, etc).
My friend says "Engineers do stuff for reasons". What he means is that we do not expend time or energy just to make things more difficult for themselves or others.

Mine was built in California. As a diesel. I have run into a few baffling things with that truck that don't follow the book of gas engine trucks.
The short bed two piece vs one piece drive line is another example of having a hard putting a pattern together like the pedals.
Iv'e seen big block 1/2 tons with 1 and 2 piece and small block trucks with 1 or 2 piece in both long and short bed configs.....that one has always intrigued me .
