Sierra hubs on an Avon

Hi all,

I have had a good day in and around Peterbough today. A big thank you to Jim, Gary and Sue at Tiger and Mark at Luego. All were extremely helpful. Most impressed with the Chevy powered Luego 400HP = Crazy.
After speaking with Jim it dawned on me that it may not be as easy as I first thought to put Sierra front hubs on an Avon. Has anyone out there tried? Any recomendations before I break out the welder??

Cheers

Adam

You will need new top or lower bones as the offset of the top and ball joint moutning points is completely different - ie, the top ball joint on the Sierra upright is a lot closer to the body of the car than the Cortina ones that are virtually vertical.
