Default FOCUS REAR DISC CONVERSION.

Am thinking of puting rear diacs on my focus.I did this on my old MK4 ESCORT RS TURBO using COSSIE 2wd and the RS 2000 handbrake.

My question is ,is it easier to use focus parts from an RS/ST170 or use discs from say a cossie like i did with the escort?

if you are getting the bits from the breakers, just undo the 4 bolts that hold the hub to the rear subframe as you'll need the hub too! about 10 minute conversion plus the cable!
