Sorry they were the wrong size, it seems the 3 door ones are harder to get than the Sapphire ones.The ones I got for my 2wd Saff were from Motorsports Developments in Blackpool and I assumed they also did them for your 3 door Cossie.

I had to get some for my 3dr cos 3 or 4 years ago and they were very hard to get. In the end i got lucky and got a nos set off ebay.
Sounds like a good plan to get fabricating your own out of the longer saph versions that are more widely available.

Yep, 3dr drop links are different from the 3dr. Ford still stock the sapp ones, I got a set from Fordpartsuk.

Thanks. Lee.

The 3dr ones are the same as the XR4i. If you have an old set you can buy the bushes that go into the bracket on there own from Ford, which are the same as the saff ones, just press the old ones out.
