Independant Rear Suspension question

[whitneyd]

Could someone help me and tell me all the dimensions and measurements for the rear hubs on an IRS Cobra? I have a Escort Cosworth all wheel drive and want to convert it to 5 lug and was wondering if these hubs could be made to fit. I'd appreciate any info you guys could give me.

That is undoutedly the stupidest thing i have ever heard. dont take that to heart, i nearly fell off my chair when i read that.

i also have an escort cossie 97' one of the last ever built. dont even bother converting to five lug, instead get Grounp A drive line. its alot stornger and a direct fit. this is what i have done. also why do you want to convert it to 5 lug?
i dont see any point in that.

also ask on the www.rsownersclub.co.uk forum

Maybe he wants to put some 5 lug wheels on there that don't come in 4 lug?

Why do Fox body mustang owners swap out their 4 lug hubs for 5 lug? So they can run 5 lug aftermarket wheels...

I have an even better idea, i recently purchased a set of 3 peice BBS center lock wheels for EX-works sierra cosworth touring cars, and the center lock conversion kit is avaiable from A1 raylespares. I should be getting this kit soon in the new year

The reason I wanted to put 5 lugs on is for the wheel choices. I want to be different. Not like every other Cossie owner with OZ supers or Compmotives. BTW I'm sure your BBS wheels will look great. I really like the split rim. Hey Cosworth if your not one of those stuck up Cos owners shoot me an e-mail at [email protected]
Oh, yea I thought they stopped making the Esc Cos in Jan 96?
