Sierra XR4X4 Front Hubs

Hi,

Silly question but here goes, i am currently stripping the second donor car we bought half way through our original build, mainly for the LSD.

I have noticed that the front hubs are unlike the 2wd Version, they have like a split connection for the bottom ball joint, my question is are these any good or do i just let them go with the donor to the scrapper?

Mike

Are they the 2 pot Cosworth ones, I know they are different. Measure the brake disk, 240mm (std with drum rears+ Ok but not that good) 260mm is 4x4, (good, I have these and they are worth having)
anything larger is Cosworth and definately worth keeping (or selling)

They are no good mate, I had them too and had to change to standard sierra ones.

No good for a std indy setup, the bottom balljoint is wrong and I think the strut insert diameter in the top is different too.

If you are going to skip them though, i will take them off your hands (for a different project I hasten to add!!)





Retro RWD is the way forward...........automotive fabrication, car restoration, sheetmetal work, engine conversion retro car restoration and tuning
