Default Cosworth 4x4 Front brake converision - 2 easy queries!

Hi there,

Firstly for this conversion on a mk3.5 Fiesta am i correct in thinking that Sierra Cos 4x4 Front brakes are the same as EsCos Front brakes and either can be used for the conversion?

Secondly what braided hose line kits can be used for this conversion, i have been told before on here by someone that the usual FRST kit will NOT work since one end of the hose has a fitting unique to the cosworth callipers?

Anyone help?

Cheers

as that man said.
i have escos on mine but they are the same, had no issues with hoses so would assume the braided ones would fit just fine
