Bob, Where is this junkyard that you can get 9 inch disk brake rearends for $50???
: I didn't know that the front spidles and all would fit. u sure about this, because I live two hours from the largest "u-pull-it" junk yard in the world. I already got a price of $50 on the rear. how about the master cyl and power boster. I need all that stuff? They say no parts over $100. The most expensive thing is an engine at $89.95 plus tax. If anyone needs Mav or Grabber parts I can take a look while I'm up there next. Email me.
: : It's a "dressed up" Granada/Monarch series car. As I recall it was available from '77 to '80. If you find one to "salvage" the axle from, it would be wise to grab the brake proportioning valve at the same time, assuming you already have front discs of course. If you don't, why not get the whole set up from the Lincoln "donor", it'll bolt into your Mav/Comet with minimal hassles!!
: : : I read on the board that this car has a 9 inch w/ dics only 2 inches wider than the stock 8 inch rear. Is there a specific set of years to look for? I'm not really familiar with this car. Any info appreciated.
