i have read in a coupla places that people have used forge front uprights off a lada. but i havent seen a pic or heard which modle. any one know about the avalability/sutability of such bits?

on a similar note, any one got a pic of a siera front upright and/or a converted one?

I have an image of a Sierra upright. You can buy a mushroom insert that fits into the hole in the top. In effect it makes the hole the right size and shape to accommodate a Transit ball joint. And yes, before anyone mentions it that is the nearside calliper fitted to the offside upright.

There are more on my site.

Yes, ESTfield uses Lada parts. It's from the 2100 series I thik. You could probably use parts from the Niva as well, but it would need another gearbox (I think).
