Hi just wanna know if the Rst, Xr2i suspension kits will fit the Si? because there's so many kits widelt available for the xr2i/rs and they all have anti-roll bar connections etc.

So they should be interchangeable right? can anyone confirm this? Thanks in advance!

All Mk3 Fiesta suspension is interchangable the only issues are when you start to bring the Mk3.5 into the mix as the front struts are of a larger diameter than the Mk3.

Yours being an Si may cause problems as most were Mk3.5 and I can't think of any companies that offer a quality kit. I would be inclined to change the hubs to Mk3 items and anything else required for the conversion to open the avenue to a whole host of decent kit.

Damn, is that so?

I thought id heard of a few people using the other suspension. and kits on ebay etc say from 89-95, so i expected all sizes were the same.... although some say (except rs & xr2i) but i presumed that was because of anti-roll links.

sorry to steal the post but how can you tell if you have mk3 or 3.5 hubs?

What about...

Bilstein Sprintline 35mm spring and damper kit for 1.4-1.8/XR2i year 01/94 - 12/95

Eibach Pro-Kit 30mm Springs 1.0, 1.1, 1.3, 1.4, 1.6 year 02/94 - 01/96

H&R do Sports Spring Kits so do Spax, Pi etc.

just go by KYB/Bilstein/Monroe/Gabriel Gas dampers or ones from ford to go with any of the Spring Kits

If you have a 93>97 L to P Reg Mk3 (classic shape) fiesta that came with oval side repeaters, filler cap flap & smaller type wing mirrors it will be a MK3.5 so should have MK3.5 Hubs, I say should because if you have a very early one it may have MK3 hubs!

So would rear suspension from a Si fit on the rear of a 1.1/1.3 Mk3.5 fiesta?

They must have the same hubs at the back.

Yes. Plus the standard Si setup is exactly the same as the RS1800.
