ford 9" monarch

I'm not a Ford guy at all but was thinking the same thing. It would surprise me if they put the 9" in a Granada/Monarch. Another rear Ford used that alot of guys get mixed up with the 9" is the 8". It looks allmost identical to the 9" except a little smaller. Not sure about the 8.8 rear as I haven't seen one of them. Don't know if they had the drop out center pumpkin like a 9" but I know the 8" did. When you see a 8" and 9" center unit side by side the tell tale sign is if you can get a socket with extension to fit on all the mounting nuts it's a 8". The 9" is just big enough that you can't get the socket on a couple nuts. Also the 8" housing is a little oval shaped whereas the 9" is perfectly round.
