Besides the SVT focus what other models and years can you grab the rear disc brakes off of that will "bolt" up to the focus rear wheels?
I am at the junk yard and there are never any focus let alone SVT ones...
Thanks!

mazda 3's are five-lug cars. also the hubs and stuff are different. Try a mercury cougar from 99-04.

2005-2007 ST or any 00-04 Focus that had AdvancTrac.

Ditto ^^^^^^ There should be a few in the yards by now.

There were a hand full of cougars... there were only 4 foci there and they were almost all SE sedans...
There is another junk yard that I think may have a large focus selection. They just usually charge more.
I will keep an eye out for the adv. Track focus and 05-07 ST's also.
Thanks!
Edit: so basically the only swap is the focus? Can anyone else confirm 99-04 cougars?

I know the Cougars have the same wheel pattern as the Focus but as for the spindle and everything else I am not sure.

the 99-02 cougars that have rear discs you can grab the brake cable, spindle, caliper, and other necessary hardware so you only would need rotors and pads?

How common was Adv-Trac? I have been keeping an eye out over the last two weeks looking at every MRK 1 focus and not a single one has had rear disc brakes.

Never mind... cougar brakes attach to hooks on the knuckle. So nothing is really transferable.
