front upright from what model sierra's
 
Can anyone confirm the donor sierra front uprights that can be used.
The reason I ask is that read somewhere that 4wd, 3 door and cosworth are not suitable.
Just want to clarify if working to book spec

I know from my own build (I've been told...) that 4wd hubs are no good.
Geometry is wrong, possible to use them but you'd need to redesign the front wishbones. :mad:
Thats another part I still need to buy...

Yes the geometry of the 4x4 and Cosworth front hubs is different to the normal 2WD cars.

So does that mean any normal 3 door or 5 door is ok
