...the Following:? 1) Same-Sex Marriage and Gay Rights;
3) Capital Punishment.
2) Abortion Rights.
 
The issue of same sex marriage wasn't meaningfully discussed in the political arena until the mid 90's So Ford would have no cause to have an opinion.

Although the gay rights movement was well under way, Mr Ford also probably had no publicly stated opinion on that either

Ford was for capital punishment

Ford and his wife were pro-choice, It wasn't until the 1980 republican party platform that abortion rights became an issue for the republicans. Even Reagan was only nominally anti-choice. He gave speeches against it, but really did nothing about it.
