I used to have some mustangs but life caused me to rid myself of my 5.0L project. So I picked up my black XR.
I am in debate on 3 door vs sapphie front hubs as I have read 3 door is twitchy.
Thanks for all the input.
There is a slight diffirence in that the Spring platform on the Sierra Cosworth is lower and that is why there is a very slight off set diffirence on the hub to a Normal Sierra/Merkur set up and the Cosworth has ABS hub's unlike the Merkur XR4Ti and Sierra XR4i. I have Cosworth hub's and Brake set up on one of my cars and have the same set up ready for the other but I am looking for hubs as I dont have ABS hubs on the car yet. I have been looking for late year Sierra ABS hubs, as they should be the same as the Sierra/Sapphire Cosworth 2wd the XR4's and other Sierra's after 1985 are mostly 4x4 and as you know diffirent in size of strut fitment and TCA fitment, aswell as the Drive shaft and bearing size. This is why I have been looking at the Scorpio Flanges as all I have to do is machine the flange to bearing size down to Sierra size and bolt on, then use Scorpio Brakes on the front as the rears are the same size anyhow.
