Default Quickie - Re: 4wd rear calipers

as thread title.....

are 4wd Sierra rear calipers the same as the Escos rear calipers.

im 99% certain they are, just after a bit of other expert confirmation!



without sounding rude, dont want random guesses and people saying they think so, i need to make sure they really are the same in a quick time scale.

cheers

they are 100% the same caliper

the listing might be differnt on fords computer because they are different vehicles

the calipers are the same on the granada estates and the granada cossies (including the scorpio versions) but the bearing carriers differ due to them being offset or inset discs

the granada cosworth carriers are deffo the same as 4x4 cosworth ones as I fitted them to me track car, presume you mean the scorpio (bug eye) ones are different, didn't know that!

inboard and outboard vents on the discs mate, and the caliperas and brackets are the same so that can be the only place they differed

the cossie stuff has the disc vented outwards, the bug eyes have them vented inwards so the top hat is bigger
