It bolts right in. May need to use a longer flexible brake line....easily obtainable. You may have to use early mustang spring perch ubolts and plates.
The u-joints used on the Maverick are larger than that used on the falcon. A drive line shop can fabricate a converion if needed.
All in all this is a very simple swap.
