HCS PIMP :will mk3 not fit mk3.5



mk3 parts will not fit mk.5 hubs.

if you want to use mk3 shocks on a mk3.5 you will need to swap the following from the mk3 as well .....

front hubs
both drive shafts
lower arms
lower arm carriers

simply not worth the hassle as mk3.5 is a better stronger design. hence why ford changed it.
