Hi guys ,just a couple of questions.when useing a sierra for the donor car and all is stripped ,i will be useing the front hubs discs and callipers ?,yes.Will i be useing the sierra track rod ends or are the swivel joints in the book compatible,the reason i ask this quistion is that i want to fab up the wishbones .will a ball joint from the austin maxi fit the sierra hub . Thanks for all the replies to previous ?.

Hi mate. 1st you will have to have the bottom taper machind on the upright to take the maxi taper. Most Kit car places will do this.

2nd. the sierra rack is longer so youl have to have it shortened. Best bet is to use a Mk2 escort rack and rod ends as i dont thing the sierra rod ends fit. Depending on what kit u have. Think they all use mk2 escy except the luego viento. I stand corrected on this bit though.

search for the alixter tool number on the forum..

if you life far away from an kitkar manufacturer..

and if you build at night.

And you will have to have shorter top wishbones.
