Yes, but 24v ones have smaller output flanges which can be changed to use cossie driveshafts

wicked so i could use a granny cos diff and just fit my output shafts from original diff and everything else would fit ?

Yeah, providing your old diff is a 7 1/2" diff, then it will all bolt up.

I was lead to believe Granada diff's where only 7", not 7 1/2"

Granada cos diffs are 7 1/2" and complete with LSD too.

they are not all lsd.. i have 1 as a spare that is not an lsd but didnt matter as i welded it anyway but is a pig to drive with... also the later ones the ultima i think have more metal on the casing which needed grinding off and was quite a lot.... the flanges are the same size as the 2wd shafts and bolt straight on but they dont have the lip on the edge so look like he 4x4 ones first look...

Depends which Granada, normal ones have an open diff, I think it is only the Cosworth varient that has the LSD in it. However, they have a 3.36 final drive to take into account the slush box (4-speed). The 2wd Cosworth is 3.64.....

if you get the diff from a "granada" cosworth then it'll have the lsd in it

if you get the diff from a "scorpio" cosowrth then it ight not have the lsd in it

they also came in other versions as well as aprt of the towing package

some granda's ran the 3.36 diffs and some ran the 3.64 ones, spin them up and see

but other than the 4wd ones, they all had 7.5 inch diffs bolted to them

Dan

So I was bloody right in the first place!

That's what I was referring to! Cheers Mike
