it may well fit although I think the Cossie rack has less amounts of turns(lock 2 lock)than the xr4x4 u may like to double check on that as I CANT remember

spadge its for my mate ill tell him

SPADGE

Ok pal but tell him delivery will be circa 10 quid if he's up north near you

JohnnyB

xr4x4 rack will fit a cossie 4x4 straight swap

I do think the cossie has less turns lock to lock

Rs Gus

my mates has 2.5 lock to lock what does yours do johnny?

JohnnyB

I think its 2.5, but not sure

The reason why the 4x4 rack is differant to a 2wd one is the TCA are shorter on a 4x4.

so all 4x4 racks will fit all 4x4's

im in milton keynes all next week but i am there for a full week - dont know if that helps if delivery is req'd ???

Jimboxr4x4

Yes, believe your right Johnny same racks but cossies have slightly less turns lock to lock (think its 2.4 instead of 2.9).

Is this right???

now please correct me but i would place a very good wager that all the rwd/4wd sierra granada based vehicle with pas have a lock to lock of 2.8 turns ( unless we are talking wrc/grpA)

When I needed an Escos rack I found there was 2 different splines on the steering shaft, fine and course.

I was told the one I had was the same as a Granada.

Don't think they are Cosworth specific just 4x4 or 2wd

markk

iTrader: (2)

2wd has many variants and 4wd and 2wd are deffo differant

CozzyBrom

and who told you that

4x4 and 2wd racks are not the same
for a start the mounting points on a 2wd are behind the rack and on a 4x4 there infront of the rack
cozzy 4x4 tcas are same lenth as 2wd tcas
4x4 cozzy racks have a thicker spline and shorter than a 4x4 v6 rack

JohnnyB

Brom, I know 2wd and 4wd racks are differant, but all I remember try to put a 4x4 TCA's on a 2wd and it had major toe in and I cannot, be ajusted.

All I can say what I have found

CozzyBrom

am not having a go either am just sayign we got a jig for making tcas up and all cozzy ones fit it
