Hello all,

I'm doing my final year uni project on converting a 1994 Escort Cosworth rally car from Semi trailing arms at the back to double wishbone.
Only problem is I'm really struggling to find an actual car to get the bloody measurements off anywhere near Bristol. Would any of you be able/bothered to get a couple dimensions for me please?

I need to know the dimensions of where the diff cradle bolts to the chassis.
I'm using this as my reference plane for everything else.

Then, the distance between the two main chassis rails that run along the car, visible underneath the back end, and their thickness.
I'm planning on using them as extra mounting points if the FEA comes back all red and negative.

Finally one thing I really can't find anywhere is somewhere I can work out what degree of incline I need to factor in the anti-squat geometry on the top wishbones. If anyone knows where there is some info on that I'll be forever thankful!

I'll happily keep you all updated if you like as I smash out the important bits over the next month/6weeks.

If it's better putting this in the general discussion bit then could a Mod move it please?

And I've finally sourced the anti-squat geometry now so that's one less issue.

Yes put it in general car discussion, much more people look there, also it may be worth you joining the British rally forum, there's a good chance someone on there may have one.

Would it be worth pinging mk Motorsport a pm?
