In 71/72, the C/20 would have been replaced with the trim level emblem (Custom/20, Custom20/Deluxe, Cheyenne20, Cheyenne20/Super, etc etc). Optional engine callout would be moved to under the side turn signal lens (where the 4 wheel drive nameplate is now) and the 4 wheel drive nameplate was no longer around.
Why do the front hubs look weird? It's late, and I don't recall the correct term, but these do not appear to be "lock-out" hubs. It appears 4WD would always be engaged.
