Default anyone got a mk2 granada?

my brother has just got hold of one, a 1981 ghia 2.8 carb with a 4 speed manual.

he wants to lower it a bit, and get it to go round corners better.

what can he do? are there any bits of other cars he can use, like capri struts or something?

also, we are unsure if it has an LSD or not, can anyone shed any light on it? and if it hasnt, which one will fit?

cheers guys.

I think Spax may still list shocks for them.

As for springs...very hit and miss. Most just seem to drop them onto the bump stops....which is crap.
When I was using normal type springs, I think I ended up with Pi fronts, and Spax rears. Eitehr way, it was still too low.

Some models came with a diff, not many though, so very unlikely it has one.

Ex cop cars, 2.8i specials etc are likely candidates.

No bits of other fords will fit easily.

Also ask here.
