Hi,
This has probably been asked before but --- Can you use Sierra front hubs and keep the Front track the same as a Locost with Cortina uprights?

You're right it has been asked before... a lot!


You certainly can *physically* get them to fit. You'll need to shorten the top wishbone to do it.

What effect doing that has on the suspension geometry though is anyone's guess!

Cheers,
James

Yes, but you will have to adjust the top bone accordingly as looking from the front, the top ball joint (when you have used a stub adaptor) is nearer the car than it would be if you used the Cortina upright.

There's an echo in here...

That's what I though - we answered at the same.

Sorry, I think there's an echo in here.
