Standard Escort Banjo type with rear sway bar.
6 leafs springs with 2 1/2 inch lowering blocks.
I have been running MK1 axles for there strength,but on inspection of spline i had twisted em a 1/4 turn[:p][xx(].
A little mod is needed to drum to clear over a MK1 axle.
Diff center is a MK1 Cortina 4.11-1 gears in a MK2 Escort housing.
(i do these myself)[^]
I have a few tweaks i do to keep the centers alive.
Many year's of no money and plenty of broken centers around.
I even cut a Holden Banjo Center to put into my RS around 10year ago.
I did come to my senses luckily.
Adding extra leave springs helps if you preload the front of spring making the leaves act like a connecting rod.infront of Diff.
If anyone wishes how to make a leaf spring sandwich let me know.
I have been lucky when it come's to advice over the year's.
