i'm researching a v8 rwd toy, and i think i found today a bolt in rear end based on the focus rear end, irs from a 2002 austrailian ford falcon, looks to me to bolt up in the same holes, or very close, and would be better and grafting on a sierra irs or mustang solid axle.

If it did bolt on, then the MTX75 4x4 gearbox and a suitable propshaft should be all thats really needed to make a 4x4 focus?

Paul Johnsons focus is coming back a different colour and with more power soon!!!

2003 Mustang Cobra IRS - dirt cheap in the states if you can arrange shipping and just need four bolts to fit.

bj928

to fit the cobra irs in a focus is a lot of work, there is a silver supercharged 4.6 cobra engined focus built by ATI, that has all cobra running gear and you can see they have cut the chassis rails to get it in.

bj928

that will be the kugel komponents kit, not a bad kit, went over to california in 2008ish and drove their red demo focus, went well, couldn't give it to much i had the owners daughter with me,
not all the parts from the kit are needed, front end bits are good, but rear end can be done easier and simpler like the focus rs8 ford built. but if the falcon subframe bolts in like it looks like it may well do, then it makes a rear drive focus a much easier built all round.

anyone on here got a 2002> falcon we can get some measurments off or maybe pics on a ramp from underneath.

looking forward to paul j focus getting back on the scene
