I have been doing these for a while now but thought i would pop some pictures up, fully refurbished rear beams with new bearing and tubes fitted.

Everything fully stripped down and sand blasted and painted, can be done in any colours you like but i have just done them as they leave the factory.

That seems a very good price to save loads of greif and hassle etc etc.

Slightly off topic but how much do you charge as a drive in drive out rear beam swap?

Have a few of these beams at here in stock waiting for the new homes. If you are the concourse guy/gal or just like me a sucker for nice shiney bits i can have all the mounts, etc painted for you.


Here are a couple of examples of the tubes once they have been removed, i think around 8 years on they start to show there age, seems more so if the beams have been tampered with-




As you can see the above tubes are buggered, the top one being the worst and that one had also scrapped the beam tube itself due to excessive corrsion making it fit for scrap.

is that an exchange price? or if not, is it cheaper with exchanging or don't you really trust 2nd hand beams anyway? was going to refurb the rear beam on mine, would rather buy a pre-done one though!
