As far as i know.
If it's a early Mk2 Saloon then it will have used Mk1 Fiesta upper front
suspension with Mk3 Escort lower front suspension.
The later saloons went over to using Mk2 Fiesta and Mk4 Escort parts.
The Mk1 Fiesta upper shock mount had a 2 bolt fixing into the inner wing.
The Mk3 and Mk4 Escorts may well have the same suspension dimensions so
either may well be suitable.
I know the Mk4 Escort had rose type ball joints on the inner end of the arms
whereas the Mk3 had rubber bushes.
Probably the only way you will know for sure is to get the full wheel
alignment done with both types fitted.

My car failed it MOT on 'excessive' play in the ball joint of the
drivers side TCA. Having trailed through posts on here & the build
manual I got with the car I deduced that I should get a MK3 escort 1.
When it came to fitting I relised that I have MK4 on the car. Due to
time I fitted the mk3 one to get it though MOT. When I got the car 6
years ago I did replace both TCA's, but can't remember which version I
took off!? All I know is that I put mk4 on.
The question is which version should I have on the car? the shell no
is 55 (early??)
Also does it matter which version is used?
Thanks
