Hi

I've a 2WD Sapphire Cosworth. A friend sells to me a kit with 4x4 front hubs, 4x4 coilovers and AP 5200 with brackets kit to 4x4

Rear coilovers from 4x4 fits to 2wd?
If I'll change the hubs, brakes and coilovers in the front, is neccesary any other mod in my 2wd to fit the kit?

Kit is a bargain and is a good opportunity to upgrade my cossie, regards

Think the steering rack will need to be 4x4 too I think????

Steering rack from 4x4 fits into the 2wd craddle?

Another question: 2wd original brakes fits into 4x4 hubs?

How are you going to keep the hub flanges seated in the hubs without the cv joint?

Good point, I didn't think about it. Maybe is more difficult that I think

MONSTER

It wouldn't be too difficult to cut a cv joint down, or even just remove the shaft and bearing carrier

You need to have the outer stub shaft end from the front driveshaft. Just remove the c clip and the shaft pulls out. Cv joint can then be taken apart.
No changes needed to steering rack.
You need to check the TCA's 4x4 has pinch bolt fitment, 2wd can have taper fit.

4x4 cosworth hubs will move the wheels in slightly.

This is mine on 4x4 hubs

Thanks to all

2wd ABS sensors fits in 4x4 hubs too?

Regards

Yeah it'll fit into the cradle but the length of the steering rack arms are different is what I ment.

Have checked the front for bumpsteer? And if you did was it bad?

It's no different to any other Sierra. Mines not low enough to make much difference.

Also no difference in steering arm length. Just track it up as normal.

2wd 4 pots do not fit 4wd hubs .bolts fit ok but different off set on calipers .. Don't fit with either 2 or 4 wd discs.. Not without some serious mods

kosienutter

Oh right ok cool beans , a mate had to temporarily put a 2wd rack on and escos to get it on a trailor and the track was awful and he had them screwed out as much as he could dare with out them popping out the rods lol. That's what made me think they where different. Silly me

All depends on which hubs you had on, tca's and roll bar. XR4x4 hubs are wider track.

If longer steering arms are needed then fit mk3 Granada ones

some nonsense on here sorry
the tca's are the same on saph cossies and escort cossies 2 and 4 wd
if you have 4x4cossie shocks and hubs you need to use the hub complete with the 4x4 discs and callipers he has and the outer cv as already mentioned
you will need longer track rod arms for your rack

robrs2

I guess your pointing the tca bit to me. I put some can have taper fit tca's as its not uncommon for some one to fit 3 door hubs on a saff. Never assume anything.
And the steering arm do fit, there in the photo. I also run a wider track to standard too.
