RS2000 4x4 rear brakes
Hi there fellas ive got a problem with my rear brakes on my 4x4 ! The rear disc brakes have the handbrake work off a drum inside the disc but the backplates on both sides are completely rotten ! Ford dont sell these anymore and when they did they were over £200 a side . So i was wondering if any of the cossie rear brakes off a saph would fit ?

No the sapphy(cos) rear brakes are a combined caliper + e/brake that fits on exterior of the disc.
You could make up some brackets to use these though, so that you get a e brake, brackets are not hard to do, 5mm steel mounted between hub/arm would do the job.

Thanks tabetha ! I should really have explained it further , i knew the handbrake on the cos worked off the caliper , but it was really if i could mount the discs and calipers to my hubs ! I dont suppose you know what handbrake cable i should use do you ? Or could mine be modified ?

I don't know if the hubs will fit, but wouldn't be surprised if they did.
For cable just look at each cable from cos and rs, as the front part may well be the same, if so most likely escos one would go straight on.
