Strikers use Mk2 Escort uprights. I may have a pic of mine somewhere.

Basically, the damper tube is chopped down and a threaded boss welded on the top. Then a ball-joint screws into the boss.

I'd recommend going for either RS2000 or Capri uprights as you can get ali hubs for these - youo can't get bearings for ali hubs for standard Mk2 Escort uprights (as I unfortunately found out....).





Spin 'er off Well...
