Hi
just throwin up about me EB wagoon i just picked up. currently standard except for the lpg system & aftermarket cruise at the moment needs clean up for rwc |

currently fitted with a single spinner with i think 3.23 [? havnt seen a tag] at one stage ages ago i picked up a runner EA gli wagoon with a 5sp [everythin working too!] so some parts will be kept for the EB. overall the EB body's good, little bit of paint peel on roof.
yestaerday went to fit the diff outta the EA wagoon as its a lsd [only 2.92 but thats fine] but then found that ford changed the front of the diff from this to this question will/can i use the tailshaft from the EA wagoon instead of the EB wagoon? what are the differances between an '88 diff to a '93 diff ie brakes etc etc also is this a standard alloy wheel for this model? if not what model? the discs front & rear will be changed [along with the pads] plus a good cleanout inside. the 'only' major problem i can see with the car is an oil leak at the front [yes little low on oil too] .... think its the seal for the balancer [?] would that be right? [has flung what looks like oil up the side of the batt, hoses, etc etc but only in that one line?] motor seems to run fine otherwise what is needed to change that seal [if thats the prob] ie remove balancer, belts & ?? [hard ta see & take a pic] also the cluster needs to come out & have the drive gear replaced [speedo -have them vdo] any probs i may encounter? things i may need? was gonna fit the motor/box from the EA into it BUT if the oil fix aint hard id prefer to leave the current motor/box combo [ie wont get shiit stirred about pullin the 4ltr & throwin in the 3.9] & throw the wagoon motor/box into the EA sedan as its the older 3sp auto version & wont need the comp played with thanks all Last edited by Mad2 on Sun Apr 11, 2010 9:54 am, edited 1 time in total. |

I can only help on the wheels at this stage but they are not wheels that came out on the EA/EB/ED they are the factory EL Fairmont wheels which actually look quiet nice with the colour of the wagon.
Cheers Josh |

yes you can use the ea wagon tailshaft in the eb when using the ea diff..
the brakes are the same from ea to ed, the only difference internally in the diff are, the ea use 25 spline axles and the eb onwards use 28 spline axles.. |

also
is there much point in using the '88 EA wagoon roof racks? [think the whole car cost me $290 with permit?] or would a '90 model or later version be betterer? Last edited by Mad2 on Sat Apr 10, 2010 10:31 pm, edited 1 time in total. |

ok dribblin on ......
stilll need ta know about the crank seal area with this does this mean a EF cover only or is the motor a later block as well? |

with the 94ab on the head its either a late ed or ef engine or the head has been replaced with a late ed/ef head..
you can tell if its a later block, by looking on the drivers side lower rear of the block where the gearbox support bracket bolts, there should be numbers cast just behind that bracket.. |
