A few people asked where I bought the bolt kit for the rear beam. I didn’t buy a kit. I ordered the bolts separately from eBay Would you all be interested in seeing how I know what to order?

[@thingyandthingy]

Yes

[@gillysgas6199]

Yes please Adam great work as always

[@davidedwards6352]

aye i would, i'm going to do the same to my m3

[@shaungowler8909]

I normally go on eBay or local Ford dealership parts department anything part wise is exspensive the magic number for Ford parts 909

[@sparky1543]

The bloke who used to own it and passed away will be looking down on you with pride Adam. Fantastic work.

[@paultaylor9652]

This young man deserves much respect for his work on this Escort. A massive 👍 from me matey.

[@Adam151082]

Thanks Paul

[@shanewaller2864]

Needs a video covering the loss of the garage Adam, i only hope your new garage is on a par with that of our good friend paul Linfoot 👍

[@1978JonBullock]

Adam She's coming along nicely now. Made me happy when you chased out the bolt holes because your just struggling without doing it especially after painting and powder coating. Can't wait to see her back on the road pal.

[@Sprintcup1]

Great update, loving the progress with the Escort good luck with the move, hope your taking the ramp after all the effort, I'm doing the same, we are hoping to finally be out of this house after 40 years, Regards Russ..

[@acidreflux2182]

If you’ve down or upgraded the garage I’ll still watch you and enjoy. Can’t wait to see you out of the road in the coming weeks giving her beans and smiling! What a machine ❤

[@jk6171]

Love your attention to detail with new bolts and everything powder coated

[@johnrowell942]

Great to see it built back up. Hope you find a new storage place.

[@In_memory_of_Dad]

Fair play to you Adam lad you are doing a mint job there mate. I am really proud of you Adam lad, you've come a long way in the restoration world since you did your Sapphire Cosworth! You've accomplished so much and you've learnt so many new skills, it won't be long before your starting your own Cosworth restoration business!!!...🤔 Keep up the good work Adam and please keep those videos coming... Regards, John 👍

[@alancobbin]

That’s gonna drive superbly when finished,hopefully another garage is coming soon fella,cheers Adam 👍😉💪

[@Local.hero.cycling.]

I fully agree with what you've done, a tidy up of the worst bits to save it,now use it, and maybe another tidy up in future winters.

[@Realfathersmatter]

Fair play to you getting about the car as you do can't wait see it at a few shows this year

[@johnpells5992]

Great job Adam , going together lovely , a lot of care as usual from you always 100% 👍👍

[@deanoscott]

Great to see someone else cleaning threads. Not everyone thinks about that. Can make a 5hitty job that little bit easier 👍 great video bud.

Thanks for sharing Adam. Your winning man

[@toms4097]

I used the powerflex full car kit on my focus & Vibratechnics mounts. They are spot on, not too hard but noticeably firmer.

[@mtbmatestrailsbanter]

Glad you found connie🐙 As someone else said the enduro batteries are much better, ive never use a full battery yet 👍

[@THEGHOSTMAKER1]

Cracking content Adam. Attention to detail spot on. Id love this car 😊

[@Brunocat962]

Good job Adam,hope the new house will have a decent workshop. I had a guy up buying Astra parts not long ago who’s your mate,says your doing well with the motors. My mk2 escort is in my garage just now :-)

[@peternufc1981]

Top of the range content Adam as always . Looking fresh she is 👌🏻 lovely summer motor . Real head turner. Enjoy fella 👍🏻

[@lukeframpton3671]

Should always use a big socket to punch the dust seal in or an old bearing race

[@grantsearles511]

Use a seal driver kit, much safer

[@lukeframpton3671]

@@grantsearles511 but what's the point in buying the kit if you're hardly ever going to use it. Just sit on the shelf collecting dust and the fellas moving house

[@grantsearles511]

@@lukeframpton3671if you're buying sockets that large how much do you think it will cost.

[@paulcherry8256]

Hats off to you Adam. The work you have done without referral to a Haynes manual.. (they were the books to have, back in the day for me, and I'm sure many other car enthusiasts). Keep up the good work.

[@bigdosser7777]

haynes are crap these days, couldn't believe it when I bought one recently for the van. You can't get a book it's all online with a small selection of specs (the ones I needed were missing) and the instructions videos you got access to were generic, absolutely useless. Got a refund. nothing like the actual book I got for my bike, it showed you how to do everything and had just about every torque setting in. youtube is the best place these days (or the worst) and the internet has probably been the end for haynes

[@paulcherry8256]

​@@bigdosser7777I don't know about the latest manuals.. I was referring to the one's I had during the 80's. They were invaluable to any car enthusiast.

[@danpoxon2425]

Great content as always Adam 👌🏽man after my own heart cleans threads copper slips an no crusty hardware goes back on 👍🏽

[@davedree]

Well done to your efforts mate, been there many a time lol. Hats off to you for the Diff mount, and GGR bushes in the rear arms as you did it right, so many people used to just fit shitty powerflex bushes and then destroy the back end handling. !!!!!!

[@ADM-BOUNCE]

Really enjoy your channel mate.you explain everything.always a clean and tidy job.keep them coming 👍

[@sandythomson1668]

Brilliant work mate. Love the channel 👍🏻

[@alanchurchill7305]

Brilliant work Adam.

[@leekindell9937]

Great vid. Love watching them.

[@jedgreco]

Love the skills of this guy. However, as I already mentioned, this car would have deserved a full floor sandblast.

[@Themunchyboax]

That bearing tool confirms you are a precision machinist 👌

[@ItAlwaysHasToBePerfect]

Puller was a great idea but it should have been machined as 2 flat discs to pull on the outer face of the races meaning there was zero chance of marking the surface the roller bearings are running on.

[@dougieirvine3980]

I hope when you get a new house you continue to do work in a garage at your new home, always thought it’s great the you do your videos from a home garage, makes it realistic and shows how anyone could manage this kind of thing, 👌👍

[@seangreenwood8331]

i just tap those bearing races in with a race driver,it gives a better feel when they are fully seated,also put them in the freezer overnight so they almost drop in

[@ItAlwaysHasToBePerfect]

Red wouldn't be my first choice but it definitely grows on you. They must be quite rare as I haven't seen many. Would look good on original wheels

[@AoP893]

Nice choice getting black bushes

[@peggyontherun39096]

Great video Adam and great build 🤟🤟

[@adamcossy]

I love your videos and that fuel filler panel repair turned out fantastic!!! But im not joking when i say that my jaw dropped when i realized you were using an electric drill to clean the threads with a tap into aluminum!!! Please do that by hand. Cant wait to see the new garage setup

[@Jase73]

Adam you are a legend my friend.. 👍 you’re doing a grand job 👌👌👌

[@steeshyboy]

Can’t believe your losing the garage!

[@stuartthomson5711]

[@user-hv7bn9ic4f]

Nice job my friend congratulations... Beautiful Escort...❤

[@Adam151082]

Thank you 🤗

[@justso1823]

Make sure you go back and re torque them bolts in a few weeks. the under seal gets compressed and sometimes makes the bolts lose on the threads

[@garymcgregor7048]

Fantastic job Adam. I'm a fanny like that. All needs to be perfect. Good lad 👍

[@gymno7478]

Adam, this is for several reasons my favourite automotive-related KZbin channel. Please don't ever change.

[@zzhughesd]

@@HulkRS. I know !!!! Cheshire though is always sunny. Costa del Cheshire. Move here !!!

[@damienhancock9408]

I would of cleaned the powder coating off the bolt mounting faces also when bolting the hub up as powder coating is thick and can become loose over time apart from that I would say that's a cracking job mate.

[@neilwharton720]

Forget using copper slip, get yourself a tube of duralac this is what is used on aircraft and yachts when you have different metals contacting each other’s surface best thing on the planet and not that expensive only need a tint bit really 💪💪

Nice work. Suggest you fit the outer control arm bolts the other way around so you can get them out insitu.

Cant wait on the news of the new garage... Are them races not machine matched to the bearings? And i hope them bearings got more packed off camera 😬

[@johnner2002]

Love the tattoo adam 😂

[@pirolucaz]

I would mark all nuts and bolts, that you had tighten to the spec with the paint marker or small brush and paint, so you know where you are

[@user-xw1uc9qu7o]

Adam it would like nice painted white with the white and blue strips down the side of the car

[@madmarkuk1]

Great vid series mate. Such a shame your moving home just as you have finished your dream garage build. Wil you be building a new one on your new house?

[@leemiddleton3900]

Rear hub bolts should be at least 10.9 tensile

[@springlakeswatersports149]

Great vid of proper nut n bolting love it

[@spitfire441]

Excellent work mate ...ya Cossie is coming along mint well done.

[@Steve-uf8pk]

Good effort 👍, however you really should torque everything to the correct settings especially the bearing tensions….

[@ianfaulkner4398]

Your doing a good job Adam but if you put the bearing shells in the freezer for an hour they should drop into place without forcing them in.

[@FreeThinkingTruther]

bearing race in the freezer. hit the hub with a blow torch to warm it up, bearings drop straight in, no tools required!

[@Adam151082]

Yeah I’ve heard of that

[@davekennedy6315]

Mate its so good seeing you proper go to town improving your Escort Cosworth, you will end up with one of the best in the UK! So good to see you cutting no corners and truly giving this beautiful motor the attention that it so rightly deserves. The love you have for these classic, legendary cars is blatant and so good to watch. These cars should be in the hands of proper owners like you and not some posh knobhead overprivileged twat that has only bought the car due to its reputation or as a potential investment and for not for genuine love for the breed. Your Cossie is superb and red will always be my favourite colour for a nice motor, so this is perfect!

I cant see you havi g anything less than a unit for your cars mate😂😂😂 Are you moving far Adam?

[@Frogdog69]

Propper job bro 😅

[@petermarshall5932]

The bearing track and roller bearing are matched and should not be mixed up

[@Terence2913]

looks like you didnt pack the rear wheel brearings good enough they should be packed with full of grease so you can see the grease pushing out ;)

[@malcolmdown9170]

Maybe a suggestion but if you put the bolt for the trailing arm in from the other side you won’t need to drop the rear beam to remove the trailing arm in the future.

[@Adam151082]

Wouldn’t go Malcolm. The gap is to small both sides

[@mk3escort84]

Also don't tighten the bolt while the arm is hanging down .do it once the weight of the car is on it

[@malcolmdown9170]

@@Adam151082 suppose it’s a way ford use to make sure that bolt can never work its way out.

Does the hardware come with that diff mount Adam? Also shocked at the rust coming out of those threads

[@Adam151082]

Yes mate. Keep going with your videos 👍🏼

[@garyturnbull4859]

Should be using a thread chaser not a tap, taps are sharp and the dirt can cause the tap to cut and make the thread loose, just saying

[@Charlton2010]

Good point

[@therealdojj]

Question please, where did you get those taps from that you've stuck in the drill? I'm doing a few bits and bobs and need something like that Thanks

[@thomas1144]

If shit has hit the fan rent a conex container and put the full work shop in it even the furniture from the house, its not as expensive as you would think. Hope all is well bud

[@andrewbaron8713]

I would have used a 50/50 mix of diesel and petrol to clean out the diff. Not oil.

After all the time and money you put into that garage that youve barely just finished with the compressor the insulation the 2 post ramp hardly no time to enjoy it now....hopefully youve got a plan though....cant believe 500notes for 4 bushes! Is the ramp staying behind?
