no you don't.....
When I bought my S2 it had an S1 box on it and there was nothing different about the ARB and brackets

I'll elaborate....
the gearbox brackets on the S2 only bolt on to the doulbe ended bolts that hold the box together, the S1 box hasn't got these so you just rob them off your S2 box, swap them over and the gearbox mount brackets will fit

I found my S1 box loads better to drive cos of the different gearing and LSD, just a shame I killed it after 2 weeks....

i personally dont see why were messing about with fords when evos are much better cars
oh and personally remember the S1 box has shorter ratios so more wheel spin
i got a S1 box if anyones interested btw
