rear backplates busted beyond repair need new urgently. seached like a blue maniac after these, 203 mm drums.  could work with rust free used parts as well. but... where to find it? Or which parts are best to use for a rear disc brake conversion? as it seems these plates seems to be rarer than hen's teeth.

Really? can you send me links please? you're an angel in that case

 

 

Do you know the Ford Finis part code for the exact two back plates you require and I will send the link.

Ureadable, 

it's 203 mm drums

 

Here is the Ford catalogue for the rear brakes:

https://ford.7zap.com/en/car/74/code.mt,1.40018,2.44091,4.39,6.43391,10.24237,12.22271/0/1935/17011/73837/

There are a few possible back plates for the 203mm

Right Hand = 1005976   OR   6187595   OR   6920277

Left Hand = 1005990    OR    6280281

The latter sounds familiar, seems to be a tough cookie to find, have searched found it in Lituathania...

 

It seems the correct parts for a 1990 XR2i are RH = 6187595   and   LH = 6920281

Auto Spares (Germany) may have them.

Seek like blue smurf but it seems as I have to need to live with used parts as well! searched worldwide, don't finding one thing. Even the fog lights are easier to find.... or the front...

Being an ex-Sierra man, I don't look at it very often now, but it is still active.

...And of course the site is not functioning....

 

Ordered parts, now wait until their pending are done.  7zap seems not to be the most convenient company to order from

 

Solved it, found a axle, with brakes and all, and tadaaaa..... The GREAT goal, last one I saw one it was way, way out of reach... This is the real baddie in Fiesta bumpers. All for €330 including insane freights (Double against the cost for parts). Oh, I forgot to tell what it is, it's one of the rarest bumpers to Fiestas there is. RS Competition parts (Ford Motorsports stuff)

It's lovely to hear of an XR2i enthusiast keeping these fine cars on the road. I owned a then new 1982 XR2, and just loved that car! Remember putting on a square RS body kit on it, RS steering wheel, and a few extra gauges. Sadly in the era before digital photography so have virtually no pictures of her. You may notice a slim silver gap on the bottom of the doors where the factory black of the door doesn't reach the bottom. I had my car in the paint shop before delivery sorting that out! Also put on an extra rear fog light for symmetry, and a 'remote' passenger mirror so I could adjust from inside the cabin. I was a very fussy young man LOL

Stock photo - not my XR2!

It's very fun cars and "cheap" to maintain, depending on what you think is cheap, but not as jags and such which ruins the wallet if something breaks. Found a source for parts in Lithuania to supply basic parts if something goes very wrong, very decent prices, but hefty freight, so buy a lot at one buy. Body parts, electrical stuff, everything available.

 I may maybe sell this, Should be sad to cut it up for the tow bar, reasonable price if I sell it.

Just a thought, now it's there. It's quite rare.
