Ford chassis reinforcement kit?
August 16, 2006 06:36PM
Just got my Ford Sierra motorsport prep guide. Is there still a source for the reinforcement kit they note that has pieces in the front wheel weels and on the bottom of the car?

Cheers! John

The XR4Ti has it STOCK!!!!

That's the extra channel under the floorpan, and the wheel wells. Ford decided us 'Muricans needed the extra strength.

Yep John, we got extra little goodies all over in the car.
I figure Ford needed to put them on some car so that they could be "production" items so they put them on the Xratties cause the cars were done at Karrmann plant in Germany cause the cars were low volume and specialty.
Once they were on some Sierra shell, then anybody could add them when preparing a shell.
You can see them in this photo of Skye's car:



Here's a little thing added onto the Escort Cosworths which might be worthwhile to add, you really CAN fell the difference, again Skye's car:
