Danny as a stand alone mod with just Koni's to speak of in the suspension department will these make a worthwhile addition to my Escos
Or do I need to consider new rear beam, strut brace etc to get full effect?
I am running about 330 bhp

This would GREATLY improve what you have, Even if the car was 100% stock. I'm asking all my customers to post on my forum in the frame connector thread with there comments. you wont be disapointed

http://www.adrenaline-race.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=22


FWD will benifit also. KA ones due to be done soon and Escort RST. will be looking for cars on the same offer as done with the cossie's.


*******Cosworth Frame connectors now avaiable for fitting and there POWDER COATED 95% just a small amount either end left bare for welding then we treat it and paint it.********

Ł310 inc vat and FITTING!!! no hidden costs and carpet removal not needed.
Will give 10% discount if a passionford gold member also throughout the month of June.

how do you treat the other side of where you've welded (the inside) to stop it rusting?

there welded area is cover with rust preventer then painted black, the inside had the tube stockist oil coating, These tube will out last the car buy atleast 50years so i dont have any worry's from rusting inside to out..

Danny,

I will post my comments after the weekend,

my diff decided it was bored and started to let go as i left yours

Should have it back by tuesday so will go and test drive then

First impressions are bloody good though (just the careful motorway drive home felt better in the fact it made the suspension feel more independent than it used to and felt like i'd stiffened the coilovers up a notch or 2)

ok ... excuse the language ... but fuck me.....




hell do they work .... have found that the car has loads of extra stablity .. there is a roundabout that has some good entrances and exits .. there is a change of camber 3/4 out of one corner and halfway out of another.

car really felt planted even on the entrance camber at 65 ... came out at over 70 on a change of camber and it felt very solid ..

another way on/off is on a l/h filter bend long and sweeping that was taken at about 70 and was perfect

turning is greatly improved the car flicks rather than turns ..

even my 14 year old daughter said it felt different on the handling.. a lot better

i defy anyone to actually say they have made little or no difference to their car..
in fact if anyone does seriously mean it i will buy em a drink ..
cos they must need one, as to not be able to tell the diference...

overall definitly some of the best money i have spent on the car to date

and agreee with tib ... coilovers deffo seem alot firmer now...

is that aimed at me?

if so, i'm not moaning about the mounting points rusting because i don't know if it's an issue or not. but some people have mint cars that are worth a lot of money and would like to keep them that way but with some good mods (not me i hasten to add )

Danny ,
I have built a sierra with brand new - and I do mean new - shell that has been fully seam welded throughout with as yet zero miles on it , no rollcage though as it is a road car (sort of) , and strut braces front and back . Everything suspension wise all fully adjustable front and back and rosejointed on a four wheel drive platform .
Will these ladder bars offer a noticeable improvement on my car or is it only beneficial on "tired" bodyshells ? Thanks in advance for your knowledge and answer .
Good work by the way .
