Is there anyone out there that knows if the P100 (cortina shape) front hubs fit onto the cortina mk4/5 front hubs?( i am after 5 studs)

acording to the qh list they have different wheel bearings so asume they are different,try using granada mk1 or 2 uprights with 5 stud fixings

But alas i have already made my wishbones and aquired cortina uprights but if the only difference is the bearing size then something can be modded to suit..cheers for the info

Pilgrim cars made a cheap cobra kit with early granada rear and cortina fronts,they exchanged the front hubs for a 5 stud version.Maybe worth giving them a call to see how,just tell them youve bought a half built pilgrim sumo and need the hubs exchanged

PILGRIM SUMO .............now that is one naff cobra replica, but thanks for the info bob, it could be worth a try.

AFAIK the Granada MK2 uprights were the same as the Cortina but discs were vented and were five stud instead of four.
Could be wrong though....
