chazpowerslide Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Hushhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. There is no need to SHOUT!!!!!! You'll wake everybody up. I'm sure one of the V8 chaps will be along in a moment to help/contradict. Discs and pads probhably Ford Cortina (M16 Caliper) or 2.8 Capri if vented (spaced M16 caliper) unless they have been up-graded. Bottom Ball joints (front) probhably Maxi/Cortina Top swivels (front) Transit drag links. Trackrod ends Ford Escort as is the rack. If it has an indipendent rear end the calpiers will be Seirra/Scorpio with Mk 3 Escort front discs. If live axle Escort drum brakes. Ask Westfield for the sizes of the spherical bearings used in the rear suspension or somebody here may know. HTH Chaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
