Default 3 door Cosworth TCA's source for new ones or refurb ?

Does anyone know if 3 door Cosworth TCA's can be bought new anywhere ?

Failing that are the ball joints on the end available from anywhere ?

From what I understand they are unique to the 3 door

Standard Sierra tcas also fit the hubs, but they have a smaller bush and M10 bolt at the crossmember.

I asked a guy who works at Burton Power and he told me the length is also different ?

I finally managed to get hold of a set of 3 door hubs, TCA'a and H13 anti roll bar, the only thing that can't be refurbished seems to be the TCA's

Did wonder if they could be machined out to take screw in ones ?

I'm not sure if the length is different. I have them fitted to my sapph with 3dr hubs and it fits fine. Camber is also normal, so I don't see a problem. Granada mk3 tcas are the same fitment as the 3dr ones, but those are indeed longer due to the wider track of the Granada.
