Rears are TOTALLY different, but can be made to fit by welding brackets on arms, the holes for the sapphy type arms were on my 5 door hatch, maybe on 3 door cos as well ?
The 3 door arb(rear) is 14mm, the sapph cos(2wd) is 16, 4wd 18mm, escos 22mm, but also scorpio saloon one same(shape) but 21mm..
