Baxter Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I have a nice set of vented Sierra front disks lying around... Anyone know if they can be easily adapted to fit a Mark 1 Escort? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidian Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 dunno if they can be adapted, but might be cheaper to drop in a whole strut assembly in there instead... better for upgrades in the long run2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 the Serria will be metric thread and the escort is imperial so the brake lines will have to be changed. The Serria strut also uses a different offset then the escort and this is likely to screw you. Your wheels won't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushrod Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 From memory I think you can run a vented capri disc on a escy but you need to space out the caliper you can buy kits in the UK to do it using your standard M16 caliper I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 yeah you can..if you can find vented capri discs..if you have some hook me up! yeah you have to get a flange cut to space out the caliper but you can get a engineer to lasercut one or get one from burton in the UK.

Pushrod Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 another plus of running a capri vented discs is you have the option of running a slotted and crossdrilled discs aswell which are not available on a solid standard escort disc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
