    9” Escort brakes

    Hi guys

    I am building a Escort mk.2 Estate at the moment. It got a Zetec engine, and i am changing the rear axle for an English one. To clear MOT in Denmark with the new engine, i need to fit 9” brakes. I can find all i need online, but i can’t find the backplate. Have you guys any idea where to find them?

    thanks in advance

    You can use Atlas axle back plates but you'll have to weld up the original halfshaft bolt holes an re-drill them to suit the English axle.

    I`we done this, but I have a Koln-axle. I used bacplates and drums from an Capri mk3 Atlas, fitted like it was made for it. Pity the Atlas is 52" or that one had gone in to it.

    Hi Chris, I still have these for sale. www.turbosport.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1630442
    If you only require the backplates then I would be prepared to split them.
