If it has std Escort handbrake then its the Mk3/4 front yoke and as said above the RS2000 Mk5 rear end. Your better off if you mix the two

I've used chevette clutch cables in the past in conjunction with Granada / Cossy rear calipers on my rally car. Nicely adjustable as well

i take it your using a sierra handbrake lever?
either way you need to change the half moon clip to the one suited to the handbrake depending on which car it came ff
