Uprights / stub axles 3 door vs 4wd vs Saph
Greetings, I had a recommendation from a Ford expert about changing my Sapphire's uprights (front stub axles) to 3 door items to aid handling. I guess they have slightly different camber.
Does anybody have pictures of the two? Or know what the difference is? Have any Sapphire owners changed to 3 door uprights?
Thanks all,
Charlie

The camber is the same on both, the CASTOR is different on the 3 door hubs, they having a bit less, so you get better turn in, makes the car twitchier.
They also have a different lower TCA fixing so will need new arms as well.
Not worth doing, as to do the same make a spacer to go on the end of the roll bar through the TCA, before the TCA goes on and it does the same thing by pushing the wheel forward.
