QWB532 (L) and QWB533 (R) - Sierra Xr4i is one, but IIRC they are used on 100s of Fords if you check the QH parts list.

Nice one Dave, you have been a bit of a life saver getting Alice back on the road!

Is there a definitive answer where the front uprights/carriers etc come from? There seems to be a bit of conflicting advice around.

Pretty sure they are just standard Sierra uprights.
The cosworth ones are different.

It's the "pretty sure" that makes me nervous... I'm planning on actually spending some money here
