Hi im planning on rebuilding my rear beam, i went to the dealers and they said that there is two different beams (dont know which one iv got).

How can i find out if the beam iv got is an early one or the New beam.
Unsure

Any help will be great.

I will try and be a bit clearer.
I am rebuilding a beam that i have stripped, dont know what year it was from.
I went to peugeot to order the bearings etc, but they printed out two pics from servicebox one is titled 08/10/09 51A03A and the new style beam is titled 08/10/09 51A10A.

The (old) style pic shows no 11 susp arm seal, 12 crossmember seal the new style beam shows no 11 susp arm seal, 12 crossmember seal and no 13 as cup which the old beam doesnt have.

Also the old one is showing no 9 and 10 as socket (trailing arm shaft bearings) however the new style beam is showing a, b and c, a and b are the bearings but its showing c which goes between the inner and outer bearings.

Hope this helps.

can i fit the extra bits for the new beam to an old beam.

Cheers

All the beam's I;ve seen are the same, 205, 309, 306, ZX etc so I know that some of the info is missleading.
But don;t order Pug Bearings now as they now have less roller bearings in, Not a real issue but it might cause wear sooner than the ealier design.
I should have by the end of the week the OE supplier's one's in to the older style
