Can anyone please help me with the dimensions of a Mk. III, IV, or V rack?
I need the distance between the balljoint centres and the spacing and distance between rack mount holes.
TIA.
Surely somebody has an old Cortina rack laying around that they could run a tape over for me please? Be your best buddy!
If I had one I would mate!

Sorry Rorty, didn't see this last night. I have a Cortina rack that came of my Robin Hood donor Don't know what mark Cortina it's from though. I'll get you the measurements when I get back from work this evening.
Bit tricky to measure, but distance between balljoint centers is 720mm give or take a few mm. (I'm assuming you mean the balljoints at the ends
of the rack rather than TREs?)
The distance between the mounting centers is approximately 340mm. I can get the mounting points measured more accurately as I still have the Cortina
front subframe. However, it's outside attached to the remains of a Robin Hood wrapped up in a tarpaulin, and it's peeing down so that will
have to wait!
