Will Mondeo MK3 Calipers fit Sierra Hub?
 
I got an opportunity of getting some V6 modeo calipers off a 2001 Mondeo for cheap, anyone know if they will bolt straight onto the ABS Sierra front hub? Not to bothered if I have to space them out to centralise the disc but just more concerned about the mounting lug hole pitch and location :confused:

Cheers

Twinturbo is probably the man to talk to but be aware of "over braking" the roadster,its far lighter than the donor.

As far as I know - they fit with some spacers (11mm or something).
You will need Focus ST170 brake disks (4x108, 300mm) and minimum 16" wheels.

Picture on brakesint website looks totaly different to the sierra/granada calipers.

MK1/2 V6 Mondeo calipers should fit with the spacing and the lug holes on the hub drillign out.

Thanks guys, I thought would prob not fit, I think other guys have fit the MK1 and Mk2 V6 but I was unsure of the MK3. Thanks for the responses... best stick with me sierra ones :rolleyes:

Mondeo MkI/MkII V6 (or Scorpio Cosworth) calipers and 278mm disks are popular mod for Ford Sierra (I have set of this for my Roadster).
You need 11mm spacers between caliper and hub, 10mm longer bolts - and minimum 15" wheels.

But - if you need more breaking power - you can use Mondeo MkIII calipers and Focus ST170 300mm brake disks. Maybe they look different, but they fit.
You need 15,5mm spacers between caliper and hub, 15mm longer bolts - and 16" wheels :)

Info from my friend who is real "Sierramaniac" :)
