There is a guy up in the Minneapolis who owns a race prepped Fiesta. He is also making some REALLY nice looking suspension parts for the Mk1 Fiesta. Check him out if you need parts. His website is out of date, so contact him directly to get the latest list of goodies. Contact info below.
Here is a list of parts and links to picks on his website. There is a rear anti roll bar in my future.
UPDATE: Site is down. These links no longer work, there will be an update as soon as I find out where to see/get them, I managed to have some of the pics on my computer, so am posting them here until we get the live link up again.

Hi Stephan,
DeleteI was emailing with Karl a couple months ago, with the same question... and I think they will be available again. He is building out a new shop now and should be creating the fiesta parts again sometime in 2014. I'll post up here as soon as I hear more, and get my control arms on order too.
If you are in a hurry, there are making similar items in the UK. But I plan on waiting on Kustom Engineering to start building them again. Here are some ebay links to items in the UK. You will usually have to message the seller to get a shipping quote to the US, and have them set a flag on the item that allows the item to ship to the US, before ebay will let you pay for it.

I also see others that pop up on occasion that are tubular and adjustable length to allow camber adjustments.
Burton power has coil over kits for the MK1 fiesta as well. I don't know what is involved in mounting those.

Good Luck
Here is another type of beefed up track control arm from the UK from orbital motor sports.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteAny news on the Kustom Karl suspension?
Would also really like to have this kit on my car :)
Cheers,
