After a search on this site, I have found information that the front GTD balljoints are from a Ford Granada. However it wasn't quite clear if this was the upper, the lower, or both. If anyone could confirm which is which, I'd be grateful.
Thanks

I am not certain of this, but I believe the the front spindle, ball joints and brake calipers for the GTD's was from the 1977 to 1985 English Ford Granada's ranging from 1993 cc to 2792 cc engines. So the upper and lower units would be for those models.

Thank you.
just for your information,I have managed to get hold of four new balljoints, a new steering rack and a pair of new track rod ends all for just £98. I think from a safety point of view, as a new owner of the car, it makes sense to replace these critical items.

John,
Try speaking to Superflex. They do a poly bush for the Cortina Mark4/5 rack. Worth a thought.
