the front suspension /brakes on an escort cosworth bears no resemblance to that of the mk5/6 escort or orions your best bet is to get them off a mk5/6 rs 2000 m8

ok thanx!!

wot about if i changed the front hubs for escy cossie ones??

dunno just wot ive been told!!

u guys own da cossies so if u reckon they aint gonna fit then dats cool!!

cosworth callipers and disks will fit , think all you need to do is drill the holes in your hub out from 10mm to 12 mm for the calliper bolts , then space your disk out acordingly due to the slightly different disk offset usualy with washers

Yeah as above you can just use 2wd cossie discs and 4wd pads and callipers
