    I got a bunch of FORD car exploded views but no Lincoln car views. What would cross over to the Ford car line?

    I believe they were an option available on the Granada.

    I had a 9" disc brake rear end under my 1976 LTD station wagon if that would cross reference.

    I bet that thing was a chick magnet. How did you deal with them all? Did it have wood grain? :p

    Right up there with the 1980 Fairmont I'm driving while the Maverick is still down.

    AFAIK the Granada or Monarch would be the only set up that should be same as Versailles...

    Granada and Monarch did share the rear...but I'm pretty sure the Lincoln brakes were brand specific...I have all the parts...just looking for something to reference at assembly...
    Craig that's a nice wagon..................:hmmm:
    Brings back memories of Griswaldesque vacations,third row rear facing rumble seats,and carbon monoxide thru the lowered tailgate window

    My own 9 inch rear came out of a 6 cylinder powered Granada Ghia and came stock with disc brakes
