Does anyone know where I can get some lightweight alloy hubs for raceleda uprights? (sierra geometry)
or know of someone who can make them up for me?

or does anyone have the full raceleda uprights on a car that is not being used over winter so I can get some made up using yours as the template?

I think MNR bought the Raceleda products when they disappeared didnt they? If so they might be able to help?
ETA: by the looks of this, the sierra urights were designed to use the escort style hubs anyway as it says tehy arent compatable with std sierra
brakes etc

sent an email to MNR and Chris said they have no more left.
as for not being able to use the standard sierra brakes. it mentions you can use the M16 caliper/disc combination. are these escort ones then?

The M16 caliper was used on Escort, Cortina and Capri, but not Sierra AFAIK.

If you can measure up the stub axle I might be able to tell you if its cortina style. If it is then you just need to use cortina ally hubs...
I *think* I have a drawing of the cortina one somewhere.
If that webpage is correct it sounds like you use cortina brake set up anyway, so I would guess that the hubs are the same. The only difference is in
the actualy geometry of the upright itself, being sierra style rather than cortina.
Other option is see if anyone can lend you some std or ally cortina hubs and see if they fit?

ETA: If the stub axle looks like this:
Clicky The chances
are its cortina.
