Burton Power can now offer strut braces to firm up the front suspension of Mk2 Escorts (and some Mk 1 models).
The strut braces are made from steel and are built to a very high standard, using TIG welding, competition spherical joints, stainless fixings and a black powder coated finish.
The strut braces are straight so will suit engines with twin sidedraft carburettors or throttle bodies. (They will not clear downdraft single or twin carbs but Burton has alternative braces for those configurations).
Two versions are available to suitboth types of strut mount hole sizes that were used.
The small hole version (bore size approx 85mm) can be ordered as part number MP239S and the larger hole version (bore size approx 110mm) can be ordered as part number MP239L.
Both types retail at £98.95 each inc. VAT.
MP239S will fit the Ford Escort Mk2 1.1/1.3/1.6 OHV 02/1977-1980 when fitted with twin sidedraft carburettors, plus the Mk2 RS Mexico 02/1977-1980 (twin carbs) and Mk2 RS2000 02/1977-1980 (twin carbs).
MP239L will fit the Ford Escort Mk1 1.1/1.3 1968-1974 when fitted with twin sidedraft carburettors, plus the Mk1 Twin Cam 1968-1971, Mk1 Mexico 1970-1974 (twin carbs), Mk1 RS1600 1970-1974 and Mk1 RS2000 1973-1974 (twin carbs).
