part number 430099-47
from a escort cosworth will thsi be ok for a rst??

 

That ain't a -31, it's a -47 lol (think it's probably a std EsCos actuator, unsure as to lift off pressure though so up for someone who knows)

 

does that make it stronger than -31??

 

IF its a standard actuator, why would it be stronger than a -31 ?

Otherwise people wouldn't change them

 

what i mean are std escort cossie actuators -31?? wil this fit on my rst asa -31????

 

I'd like to know the answer to this too, I have heard that the standard cossy one fits on a S2 like a -31, would like to know for sure though...

 

No, a standard EsCos actuator is not a -31.

 

Escort Cosworth rod length is also shorter??

 

i thought it was longer Ian because of the design of the 4x4 manfold..might be wrong...

 

The actual bar of the actuator is shorter. Can be compensated by longer bar with eye on it (from Cos 4WD?)

 

see where ya coming from....

Have got a longer bar on mine (was welded together)...just was told when i brought it (needed it there n then) that it wasn't for a 4x4 cos...i guessed it was for a 2wd but must have guessed incorrectly

 

the genuine garret dash 31 is the same length rod as 2wd/rst, to fit it to 4wd cars you need an extension bar.
escort cos rods are shorter (as ian said) with a longer bar,
