Granadas - all 7.5 inch diff and 5 stud hubs?

As title, are all Granadas fitted with 7.5" diffs and 5 stud hubs...?

Scorpio's have 4 stud hubs, unsure about the diffs





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Late Scorpios had 4 stud wheels with same PCD as Sierra's.

The Rear subframe was designed to take 7.5" diffs on all granada's and scorpio's. but either 7 or 7.5 could be fitted. The late scorpio's had slightly more cooling fins on the rear plate of the diff (IIRC). Also the late scorpio Diesels (definately, but might be all late scorpios) had heavier rubber seals on the mounting faces for the bolt on CV joints AND thicker diameter bolts to hold them on (by 1mm extra on the diameter IIRC).

The outer wheel drive plates are interchangeable between all Grandas and scorpios.

Hope this helps.





Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Thank you!

Spotted a possible donor and wanted to check.
