These will fit, I should have said

They are GrpA Jumpo Bilstein Coilovers but Bodies have been converted to GrpN so they will run in 4x4 Cosworths.

I dont know how they've been changed as tbh didnt know much about Billies untill I purchased a Rally Shell with these on and Marco Polo and rsjp told me what I had.

They were gong to be used on my Maxi build but there not for my needs.

Hi mark

i cant tell you the bump and rebound rating or either Gravel or Tarmac

basically they are the big jumbo inserts 70mm

now the bottom platforms and the top cups that hold the springs are 100mm

The bottom platforms are magnesuim


The bodies are Gpn to fit 4wd sierra/escort road going hubs

they are a bit trick , it may be better off suited if the springs /top cups/bottom platforms were changed to 3" get more clearance from the wheel

they sound a bit like a one off concoction to be honoust, they must be home made perhaps? i dont think ford ever made anything like this unless it was development stuff perhaps for jumbo inserts?

As expected, these are 50mm Recce car units , ive seen them before with Ohlins inserts as well , the base of the body is usually machined or welded off centre as the strut is way biggger than the std hub hole , nice units
