I'll try and catch up with where I am now, but there's a few photo's to get through and a boring 24v Saff rep to reach as a goal, although for me, when it's up and running I'll be buzzing my fucking tits off

Anyway, after stripping the Granada down me and a mate fitted up the rear end



We dropped the entire front end from the granada onto a trolley, ready to fit up into the Saff, if I remember right I was wanting to change the cam cover gaskets as they were weeping onto the exhaust heat sheilds - which wasn't pleasent - but, I was given the wrong ones just as Marcsierra had predicted so it just got bolted straight in.



You see, I needed to get rid of the Granny shell from my mates garage and he didn't want bits sat all over the place and the Sierra needed to be in a state where it could be driven out into the yard if it was in the way of a job. So yes, slush box and all went in whilst I got hold of a hybrid MT75 box.

The Granada struts and springs are a bit too tall for a Sierra but the steering knuckles have the same diameter struts as 4x4 Sierra's, so going on Dojj's wisdom I got some Escort Cosworth struts as the spring cup platform is higher than 4x4 Saff Cos/XR4x4 - this would give me more freedom in the future when it came to wheel/tyre clearence.
