NO they are different 2wd is different from 4wd but a 4wd sierra rack fits a escos.
I can't see a mk5/6 rack fitting a escos, as escos is sierra floorpan shortened to suit escort bodyshell.

As I understand it, the escos rack uses the same rack body as a sierra 4x4, but the steering arms are different

You didn't actually ask that though did you? As said above a 4x4 Sierra rack will fit an Escos.
