Phil, can you get a quick measurement on the watts, rod length?
Need to see if the one i've got will work, or i'll have to modify it.

I dont think you will not get the falcon ones to fit as they are just a little to long. One of them goes out inside the Rim. I Went to the wreakers and got the adjustable rods from the rear suspention of a 1989 ford corsair. they are a little short Maybe if you are looking for over 100mm of travel. All i dont then is drilled out the rocker to suite the larger diameter holes in the Rods.

I was going to use a custom set up with custom bars,the falcon bars are to wide for the escort,but you could definately cut them down.Im not using the watts link centre cover either due to the fact the roll centre is fixed at the point on the diff cover.I need to further lower the rear roll centre to dial out some of the tail happiness,which I plan to do with a triangulated section from the boot floor and the watts crank mounted in that box with the arms fixing to the 4 link brackets on the diff.Similar to the supercar set up.  ![]()
