I have Probe pistons and Eagle h-beam rods for a focus in my contour Zetec. if you are going to use focus pistons you MUST use focus rods as the compression height of the piston is different for the focus than the contour/cougar.

everything else is the same, they just lengthend the rods slightly and lower the compression height of the pistons. im not sure why they changed it though.
