It has been done. I believe a couple of the bolt holes don't line up bit it does work. The final drive is shorter so power will improve but mpg will decrease. For a more thorough answer sign up for free at fordfestiva.com. Neanderpaul
yes
No, they are different sizes, specs, and part numbers.
no, two different suspension system specifications.
No, the rear shocks and struts from a 1987-1993 Ford Festiva will not fit a 1996 Ford Aspire. While both vehicles share some similarities as they were produced by the same manufacturer, their suspension components are different in design and specifications. It's best to use parts specifically designed for the Aspire to ensure proper fit and performance.
yes and no... all aspire suspension parts front and rear will bolt directly to the festiva body... however the parts are not the same so you have to change the entire structure over to aspire suspension.. the 2 cars share a few individual parts like axle beam and various nuts and bolt. the aspire and festiva also have different wheel lug patterns so you need to have aspire wheels also and spare.... so if you change only the front or only the rear you will need to carry 2 spares.
Engine, not motor... there is a difference. The engine in the 1993 Ford Festiva/Kia Pride/Mazda 121 was the fuel injected 1.3 liter Mazda B3 engine.
Yes, but removing the rear spindle is a lot of work and may require power tools or a press. A better alternative and a common modification for a Festiva is to swap the front hubs and rear end from an Aspire to a Festiva. This allows you much larger brakes, removable disc brakes up front, a rear torsion bar for much better handling. Some would say the swap is almost required as the Festiva stock brakes and suspension is horrible.
Chevy metro
