    Cool Re: My 1992 Escort Cosworth.

    Cool. I saw this before in Sigmond Feund's Escort Cossie site. Nice collection he got there.

    I will definitely have to import one, hopefully this year as there are not many of those in the country.

    No worries The front dampers are going to be rebuilt and have new springs (450lb). That's the reason one is missing.

    Re: My 1992 Escort Cosworth.

    Öhlins 3-way dampers cost about 10.000 nok for one. 5/6 of that if you have some bilstein or similar casings that they can build them on. That will be about £3450 for a set of four (with todays exchange rate).
    Stiffer springs because I use it mainly as a track car and 300lb springs is not stiff enough on a track.

    Re: My 1992 Escort Cosworth.

    I guess I should update a bit as I've changed the front suspension. Cut out the turrets and welded in WRC turrets. On top of that is WRC bearings. Just need to do that same for the rear
    Still need the measurements for the welding point on the rear though. Anyone have them ?
