Default Focus Rs Mk1 suspension

hey people

i have a question for you all
does anyone know if the suspension on the focus Rs mk1 is any different from the standard focus...
not talking about the dampers or springs.
im talkin about front trailing arms,anti roll bar connecting rods,and all the different suspension links/arms in the rear end.

i know the _Rs is wider track..but wondering if anyone knows where the difference lays.

cheeers

The front arms are different.
The front hubs are different
Not sure on front roll bar.


The rear subframe is the same on all focus
The rear roll bar and drop links are the same.
Upper (bannana shape arms) and the dog Bone shape arms are the same.

Lower arms and trailing arms are rs specific.
