What are front hub carriers off?

Hi, got a 1996 chimera with a damaged front hub carrier, does anyone know what car they were "borrowed" from or are they a TVR special? They look like Ford!!

Sorry but no, they are from a Sierra.
90's escorts were FWD.

actually you are both right, common parts between escort RS turbo and Sierra. A 96 model probably has 240mm brakes, which were escort parts, later models, used the 260mm disks from later RS turbo and Sierra, but always beware TVR used what they wanted on any particular day.

If the OP was talking about brakes then yes, but he was asking about hub carriers(uprights), which are sierra.
