I have had st170 on mine for a few years, standard servo is fine and standard brake pipes with braided hoses works perfect

Just use your std servo. Try to find the fitting kit from ebay. I bought mine for 13-14q and there are the spacers and the new bolts. You don't need to change your brake lines if they are in good working order. The only think you have to do is to drill the hub because the new bolts are M12 and the std M10... Is very very easy mod, don't worry!

No tap, just drill, the threads are in the calipers not the hub

wat size spacers do you need or is it just a simple bolt up job?

marky_g

u need 12mm spacers and longer bolts, then drill the hub carrier holes to m12 then bolt on

Zetec_mk4_XR3i

glad to hear original servo is up to job but i've read the upgrade to a mk2 mondeo servo is very worthwhile, anyone tried it?

marky_g

ive seen it done on mk2 fiestas but not escorts

12 spacers. Don't fancy that much tbh. No better ofset discs ?

marky_g
