xl xm xp were 4 stud pattern factory and and were 13" wheels, every one updated to falcon 11"discs and then all the xp's had 14" hotwires. I put a lj banjo diff into an escort years ago its only 1" wider than an escort diff just change the diff brackets and then i re-drilled the front escort disc's to torana and then fitted 14" wheels and had a stronger diff as well
XL XM XP utes all ran 5 stud 13" wheels, you are correct about the 4 stud in the sedans though.
