No probs.

 

are you sure they are 1mm washers as they look wider

if so where on earth can i find some , i have been everywhere and the smallest i could find were 2.4 mm

 

I have a Rs Turbo series 1, i was just wondering will the cossie callipers fit ok behind the standard wheels. I was looking into doing the conversion as the standard brakes are terible!!!! I have not seen any second hand callipers for sale lately, i was at Ford ......fair and no joy in parts and spairs.

 

Pretty certain they will fit.
Get some pics up of your car mate.

 

can u use 4x4 discs?

 

4wd calipers with 2wd discs and spacer brackets will, 2wd 4 pots WON'T, or at least not easily.

marky_g - don't think so, but don't quote me. They will be a different size i expect.

 

what braided lines do i use 4x4 cossie or rs turbo

 

I used RS Turbo ones

Alright guys, ive read this a few times now and its as clear as mud to me at the min...maybe im to tired or could be im missin a brain cell at the min!!!

I have escort cosworth discs and calipers to go on my series 1 what do you recon have i bought the right stuff or dropped a bollock???

 

If the discs are 283mm then should be ok......altho I'm not sure if the centres are different between Esc & Sierra or exactly the same fitment/ diameter.

 

How do you fit the cossie 4 pots to a S2 ?

I am needing a vast improvement in my brakes, im sure i read it somewhere before but i have forgot.

Any info appreciated

 

im trying to fit 4pot cossy to a mk4 escort at the min

from what ive found you need to machine about 4-5mm ish off the mount

then it just bolts on

im using 2wd disks i will let you know how i get on

 

anodised

look foward to hearing how you get on with it . any info would be useful

 

ok mate ive got the calipers and disks all mounted will get pic up 2moro

its not as easy as the 4x4 brakes to do cause thats what i did have on it

 

I have a mk4 XR3i, hoping to have bigish turbo conversion soon n all that jazz, so will be wanting bigger brakes what i was wondering is;

is there a differance between RS Turbo braided brake hoses and XR3i hoses?

Cheers

 

Excellent much appreciated

 

ive got 2wd discs and calipers on the front of my erst s1 all you do is grind 4-5mm off the inside of the caliper mounting face and then get suitable lock nuts and bolts to hold them on but ive had to use 5mm wheel spacers as ive got 17" softlines on because the caliper was to close to the wheel as is when fitting softlines on a 2wd cos

 

Hello guys,

I went to a race and rally shop in the netherlands and they can supply me the ferrodo D2500 serie from the 4x4 and the also can supply grooved and drilled 283 mm discs.

The problem is they can supply it in two different hights
around 44 mm and 56 mm hight of the total disc.

Can somebody tell me which hight i need to order, because i don't want to order the wrong ones because they are specially orderd. And it takes 4 to 5 weeks to get them

Please help me

 

never had to use a spacer washer on my set...



want a guide on the rears?

 

Yer do a guide on the rears chap!

bump

Need to order them quick

 

still no1?

 

around 44 mm and 56 mm hight of the total disc.


what is the disk height?

 

I'm almost 100% sure it's 55 but i want to know for sure

http://autosportcompany.nl/viewdetai...6403&afdid=515

Here you got a dutch site that gives 55 mm, but i don't know why they also got the around 44 total hight...

 

ahhhh, offset...

44mm will be the 4x4 disks then I reckon.

 

haha ok i'm sorry, but i'm still a dutchman

 

will all v6 mondeo mk2 calipers be the same as 4x4/ecos or just the st's

 

need a def answer on this as i have a 2 blokes waiting on replys

so st mondeo/v6 and granny cossie/scorpio will be ok????

 

can no one shead anymore light on this plesae about the mondy/scporio calipers?

 

If you read what he said he does say 2wd calipers, NOT 4wd calipers which is what you have pictured

 

who says? Thread is about 4x4 calipers all round? If you use 2wd calipers you need the opposite to a spacer, to grind yer hub carrier...

What you got fitted on that cab of yours?

 

I reckon you can use pretty much any rear caliper as long as the mounting hole lines up with your bracket. the only difference will be the offset of the disk, and so the size of the spacer. Just use the disk from the same car as the caliper or you might end up only pinching the outside edge of the disk.

 

2wd set up all round.

I have 2WD Discs and calipers to fit to my S2 . I have offered them up and as mentioned before i looks like i need to machine the caliper a bit to fit . Is this the way to do it from your experience as you have them fitted??

Many thanks

If I want to use 283mm Sierra Cosworth 2WD brake discs on an MK4 with the original Escort RST S2 calipers, then I have to use front caliper mounting brackets, as shown here: http://www.rsrich.force9.co.uk/zetec-turbo/sale.htm

Unfortunately they do not answer to any questions, or orders.

Could anyone help me, and tell me the measuements of this bracket, so I can have it done by a local shop?

 

4mm needs to be machined off the mating edge of the caliper

 

Cool exactly 4mm is it -milled i suppose -then fix the caliper on with a bolt and nut??

 

The hubs need the holes taped to M12

 

Right is that to use the 2wd caliper bolts which i dont have ?. LOL
