Cortina axles
Noj - 24/3/04 at 06:30 PM

Hey guys. My first post on here.

I was just wondering if any of you knew the axle/differential ratios of the Mk.4/5 Cortina's? All my searches have turned up bugger all.
I've only got the V6 one so far, and I need to know what ones went on the 1.3, 1.6 and 2.0 models.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

If you're looking for one, we have an axle with brakes, handbrake and propshaft cluttering up our shed. £70 or offer. off a 2L GL mk IV

I'm hoping to find a donor car locally to use for the front hubs and all bits like that aswell
