Delphi BG3585

[Arnold Cunningham]

I am looking for a 253mm diameter, 5 stud, vented disk, identical to BG3585, which was used on some variants of the early 90’s Ford Granada Scorpio. So far, it seems that this part or any alternatives no longer exists from any supplier. Anyone got any ideas?

Hopefully this might give you something else to look into, alternate part numbers from other brands.

Thank you. I’ve been through all of them and they’re either solid or 4-stud. It seems I’m looking for rocking horse st!

I will search tomorrow whilst at work, have a lot more at my disposal in the office.

Any idea on which version of the Granada ? I can see if I can find the Ford part number and work from there.

Thanks all for the help.

It looks like it was an option on all the non-cosworth variants. The reference vehicle I've been using is a Mk1 Granada Scorpio Estate (GGE), 1988-1994 with a 2.4/125hp engine. The Mk2 Scorpio (frogeye one) has the right size discs, but downgraded to a 4 bolt setup.

The 2.9 Cosworth got the larger 273mm rear discs, but it's a different upright to accomodate the larger dia, not a different caliper & slider. As this is for my old Ultima Spyder, I can't really change the upright and I don't have enough space to make a bracket - hence wanting the 252/3mm vented disc.

I guess the primary option is to downgrade to the solid disc variant - lots of disc & caliper availability still.
