will focus springs fit a bg?

[southerncross]

i can get a stupid killer deal on a set of eibach focus springs if they'll fit my 92 lx. . . if not, then, well. . . it sucks. got a friend who inherited a brand new in box set of kyb agx shocks for all four corners, new in box unopened ford motorsport forged 16x7.5 wheels, and new in box eibach 1.5in drop springs. i know the wheels wont fit since ford has like a 4x108 pattern or something odd like that for the focus, but i heard somewhere that focus suspension will fit a zx2, which in turn can fit a bg. . . but maybe i misread or misheard. someone clarify it for me so i can steal this stuff for butt cheap!

[southerncross]

Focus's lug pattern is 4 x 4.25 or 4 x 107.95.

Are you guys postive on them not fitting? The focus zx2 is a bg chassis I think. Might want to be more specific on what focus car and year.

whoa there!

first off, theres no such thing as a focus zx2, its the focus zx3.

the ESCORT ZX2 is a BG.

there never has been a focus based on the BG platform.

And everything that I've read has said that nothing from a focus interchanges with a BG.

[southerncross]

well it was worth a try. i was going to get the agxs new in box an eibachs new in box for $200. thats a hell of a value. i tried to order HP racing springs today from horsepowerfreaks.com, but theyre on national backorder. . . which means they will take about 120 days to get em in.

When you're putting the new springs on, give the focus springs a shot, just for kicks.

[southerncross]

well i can do that this weekend probably. ive got 3 sets of factory pro shocks and springs. . . i can see if they'll fit ok on the shocks and maybe try em on my car.

[therieldeal]

i would seriously lol

Hate to break it to yuh, but there is such a thing as a Focus ZX2 and ZX3, as well as an escort ZX2.

[therieldeal]

hate to break it to ya, but youre wrong . the only focus ZX2 that exists is in prototype form: http://news.windingroad.com/auto-new...and-new-sedan/

the current focus models here in the US are the zx3 (3 door hatch) zx4 (4 door sedan) and zx5 (5 door hatch).

and again, the focus has nothing to do with the BG chassis anyway, so who cares
