Default 4x4 sapphire fuel pump and filter cradle.

Hi all,

Having no luck sourcing a replacement cradle for my Saff.

I've found the long bracket and bushes (which are made new by a few companies) but I'm after the actual cradle.

Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Cheers,
Smit.

Hello mate had a quick search, Cossies not my forte but ill try help - found this





https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/253370628680?rmvSB=true

its a very old auction but maybe contact the seller the may have stock not listed?

Have you tried the cossy breaker in Portsmouth ?

Try FB too put a request out in cossy owners / RS owners gorups- as a lot of people dont advertise the parts but are wiling to sell - and normally are the people who charge normal prices lol- good luck mate

Thanks for the help. I've searched Ebay last night and they don't come up very often unfortunately. I see that old auction, also for the new one which went for £250+

I have enquired with a few breakers, trying to put the word out to as many places as possible.

Just placed a thread on here incase anyone has an old one in their shed/garage which would be for sale.

Smit, try Ant at AS Car Dismantlers in Red Lodge - https://www.facebook.com/ascardismantlers

He has loads of sierras there for breaking as well as owning several cossies and rs turbos himself so would hopefully be able to help you out. I got mine from there, had it blasted and gave it a fresh coat of paint

Been offered a re-manufactured one from someone off a FB group. The guy has made 5 and only has one left. Still waiting to here back from them, but other people were jumping on the thread so it's been more than likely sold by now...

I managed to get one of the re-manufactured ones on the FB group, my current one on the car isn’t actually too bad but I’ve brought a new one as a spare as I know in years to come it’ll be even harder to find one. Good luck with your search mate.
