I have found a 2004 Kia Rio being parted out. Can I use the front suspension and rear spindles+brakes on my 93 Festy? Only have a few days till it is getting recycled, so I gotta jump if it is going to work.

2004 Rio Suspension??

Phoenix (on this forum) has a very good recipe for front brakes from these cars (03-05 Rios). Not much else is usable. Rear end stuff is of no use at all and front end goodies are (I suspect) limited to calipers, knuckles and discs. Top hat is likely a 3 or 4 hole instead of what you want. But 10.5 inch vented and floating rotors certainly is something for any and all Festy owners to Aspire(?) to.

Just the Aspire... and why the hell did they cube it when you were getting parts from it? Didn't they know you were coming?Last edited by DriverOne; 01-19-2013, 10:59 AM.In love with a MadScientist!:thumbright:
