If anyone needs them I have a set of custom made Granada rotors that were made with the small register so you don't have to cut down original rotors. They were made for a company that was going to do Granada brakes for the early Fords. Brand new in the box, never used $120 for the pair plus...

Hi Guys, There is a set of granada spindles on e bay. # 373104792330 $215 or B.O. Hope this helps, Dave

I have an original automatic transmission with bell housing and Torq converter. All core parts, truck had engine problem appeared not to have transmission problems. Should fit trucks from mid 50s to early 60s with Y block.

Steve, The wagon had a 3/4" sway bar, the bushing had a slit in it to slip over the bar. This series of bushings that Moog sells is specific to size not to manufacture . Dave

Check with your parts house and see if they carry Moog products. I found them for my 54 wagon K7323 They are eurothane 2 to a box with bracket. They have them in metric and American sizes. Hope this helps.

I don't know if this helps. Mercury has a shorter distance from the bend to the eyelit around 8 1/2 to 8 3/4" distance and Ford is around 10 3/4 to 11" your wagon may have been drilled for a Mercury sway bar. My friend said his 56 ford wagon came with a Mercury sway bar. Hope this helps...

For that kind of information just go to google search.

Try going to u tube and searching electric power steering conversions. Also check electric power steering for 64 falcon. The guy is very knowledgeable and will show you how to do it yourself. I used a lot of his ideas and put electric power steering in a 54 ford wagon with automatic transmission...

I have a few of those if you are interested

Hi, I have a copy out of the ford repair manual, On how to test ball joints. I have used the instructions and passed it on to others and have not found a bad ball joint yet. If you don't have to replace the ball joints you could be a couple hundred dollars ahead. Worst case you might have...

It would help to be a little more descriptive on the terminology Floating. Do you mean car to be uncontrollable? wondering from side to side on highway? All these things would help. Please explain what new parts you have installed, other than tie rods and motor, if any.

Hi, My friend told me he has a set of NOS ford sill plates for a 56 ford, that he would like to sell. If you are interested I can get pictures. Dave daverace@sbcglobal.net

Hi guys, If any one is interested on the instructions of the granada power steering on 54-56 fords. send me an e mail. I will send you a copy of the original that Dick Cohen did in years past. daverace@sbcglobal.net

You didn't mention how you plumbed the master cylinder. The rear port on the master is for the front brakes. The port closest to the radiator is for the rear brakes. 1/8th" free play is too much, you only need 60 to 90 thousands. I would start with this.

The easiest way to tell is the hole at the bottom where you would adjust the brakes should always point to the rear of the vehicle. If it has 2 holes then it doesn't matter. Dave
