Trailering Special?

My 76 blazer has an emblem on the tailgate that says "Trailering Special GVW 8,000 lbs". What did this package include?

No, 4 wheel. I checked out the link but, it does not explain the 3.08 gears that I have

Re: Trailering Special?

maybe that's what the person who ordered the truck wanted?
