I am reading a lot about the Granada, V-6, and V-8 spindle controversy /difference. My car is a 1965 289, original motor and trans. Whereas I can not account for the first 40 years of it's life, is there any way to visually tell the difference between the three types of spindles. The front end does have a mind of its own when steering, so I believe I might have a wrong set-up
Thanks

I did the granada swap and the car turns much sharper than before even after alignment and new front suspension. I dont recommend it
