Have you got drums on the back still?
Oh and are these brakes much more effective than the old ones?
I fancy upgrading my fronts to cossie or 300mm 4 pot discs and moving the RS2000 brakes on my front to the back
Stopping power should be nothing short of amazing

Standard Ford Cosworth discs are 280mm and most used for brake upgrades on Fiesta's.
EBC greenstuff pads are the brake pads lot's of people use.
And you can get reconditioned cossie calipers from places like (see link below), and yes they need to be from the 4x4 version.

Or just get some second hand ones from the for sale section here.
Hope this helps
