No way!
I got that steel cross member I ordered this morning, but it aint from no Sierra!
Looks like a mk3 Granada, same box but different cross member, spoke to someone on FSOC he said looks like a mk2 EScort auto, and when I typed that into eBay some Capri ones even look the same!
To be fair though I e-mailed the bloke and he's offered me a full refund if I send it back.
But i need to keep the alloy bit
I hope this gearstick cradle turns up tomorrow, trouble is if it's someone selling lots of stuff they can't be arsed going back and forward to post office, they wait until they have a bunch of stuff.
But they shouldn't tell you it's coming and not send it.

Oh no, I'm not excusing him at all, just saying that's the attitude that your up against some times.
And even worse that he/she/they can't even write a 1 minute e-mail to explain.

I would use the 4x4 rod in the 2wd cradle, be a lot stronger. Go to Fords and you can still get the link that connects the box to the rod. Its listed for the 4x4 esc cos

Good day too day at Rs Central day met some great people and now thanks to ade500 for the parts (throttle cable, power steering pipe and k&n/adapter) and dojj (for the info on a few things) I am only a few steps from having all sorted, also bought a set of braided fuel lines and scuttle panel fixings for saph.

rotten and some hit it outside breaking headlight, test and tax runs out at the end of the month.
it was always my intention to use the engine loom for my mk2 granada, thinking about fitting the engine too.
