escort si Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 My back arch is rough as fcuk. i was told i think on this b4 that it was a fault in the 95/96 escorts. well anyways was wondering how this can be fixed so it looks as good as new. will steel need to be welded in or something. help appreciated. ps anyone had this problem?

RRX Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 The rear arches going rusty is a fault on all escorts. It cannot be stopped but can be removed till it reappiers. To make it look like new it will need to have the rear arch cut out and a new piece welded in and smoothed into place. then sprayed to match the body. hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
