I'm trying to convert my mk5 Transit County to none County parts to avoid the horrendously expensive service parts. To replace the discs, pads, ball joints, tres and wheel bearings will cost over £2,000.....
I have mk6 Transit front hubs which I'm hoping to use but I want to compare tre (track rod ends) and ball joints before I buy some!
I need an online catalogue with dimensions. Any suggestions?

probably best buying a rusty donor but you'll need to change a lot of the running gear (almost all of it) including the gearbox if your going to 2wd and I doubt much of the 2wd parts will fit yours. tbh you'd be better just selling yours and buying a 2wd version.

Converting to 2wd would be simple but I'm using the FWD hubs off a mk6 so I can keep the 4wd.

I have the pdf of the SIDEM catalogue at home. I'll stick it on my dropbox for you to download. I don't think its online anymore.
Might be worth a search though.

That would be marvellous.
