The easiest way to tell - is jack the rear end off the floor - spin one wheel, if the other spins the same way = LSD, if spins opposite, NON-LSD...

If you believe you're not crazy, whilst everybody is telling you, you are - then they are definitely wrong!

Yes,it should be fitted with, a 7.5" 3.36 ,ratio lsd,slightly different ratio from the normal 3.38 ratio fitted to some sierra's,and they
are 7" diffs

Yes good ratio for most Bec's ideal for your 929 blade,the 7.5 diffs weigh a bit more than the smaller 7",but I would not worry about
than,its a cheap way of getting a good ratio LSD,you do need to build your rear diff brackets to suit,7.5" wide.

Wont be a problem,Chassis is in its early stages and non of the diff frame is in yet,Just getting the main bits together so they can be linked
together really and get it on its wheels asap

It will be a 7.5" diff with 100mm bolt-on flanges - but I thought they were a 3.64 ratio, same as the early granada 24v's ???
and that the later ones had traction control instead of an LSD ????
found this on the FSOC forum:
quote: I've finally found the diff ratios and codes for the Granada/Scorpio.
86-94:
A=3.36
U=3.62
3=3.64
T=3.91
D=3.92
95-98:
A=3.36
3=3.64
7=4.09
2=4.27
I'm not 100% sure, but I think this should be the engine/diff combinations.
1.8 OHC 3.62
2.0 OHC 3.62
2.0i OHC 3.62
2.0 8v (89-92) 3.92 (or 3.91)
2.0i 8v (89-94) 3.92 (or 3.91)
2.0i 8v 4.09 (95-98 )
2.0i 16v 4.27
2.3i 16v 3.91
2.4i 12v 3.64
2.8i 12v 3.62
2.8i 12v 4x4 3.62
2.9i 12v 3.64
2.9i 12v 4x4 3.62
2.9i 24v 3.64
2.5 D 3.64
2.5 TD 3.36

Yes the engine will be available complete with wiring and ECU.
Im in Lincolnshire which may be a problem but i could get one of the wagon companys we use (Intake Transport) to deliver it as there up north
everyday
Or you can collect

that just leaves the big questions
what condition is it in ? (runner or not)
& how much would you want for it if you go ahead with stripping the car ?
