Ford P100

Does anyone know...

-Are P100 uprights Cortina style or Sierra style (or did they change the spec during it's life)?
-If they did change type how can I tell them apart by sight?
-Are P100 uprights usable with standard book bones?

It must be obvious to someone!
Cheers
Dave

from what i remember the early p100 had cortina style, and the latter had transit style both 5 stud hubs, and i think the bearings are different so you can't put cortina hubs on p100 uprights?


someone may come along and put me right

I'm sure the later ones I saw had Sierra front ends, and presumably Sierra front suspension.

Early Cortina based and late Sierra based P100 types used Mk1/Mk2 Granada & Granada-Scorpio front end parts respectively.


(1) The MK1/MK2 Granada used a heavy duty version of the Cortina front end with bigger ball joints than the Cortina.

(2) On the later Sierra cab type P100 with strut suspension unlike the normal Sierra strut front end dosen't have tapered ball joints. Most of the late P100 front end parts are shared with the 2wd Cosworth.
