Hello there, so after a thorough search (5 minutes!) I cant find the answer to my question. I am after a rear beam for my rallye and have arranged to take a look at one on Sunday however I have just found out that the beam is off the car and I was wandering what kind of issues this may entail when attempting to check over a second hand beam?

Are there things for me to look for when looking it over and special techniques to "test" the beam? Or is it totally not worth the risk as theres no real way to check unless is on the car?

If you havent already guessed I'm a complete novice so i apologise if these seem like silly questions!

Cheers, Tom.

Just to add, from past experience lowered beams are more likely to be goosed due to amateurish lowering techniques. Buggering the seals and refitting with no grease, knackered arb seals letting moisture in etc etc.

if it hasnt been rebuilt then budget for two shafts and a set of bearings.

Another advantage of doing a rebuild is you can get the torsion bars free from the trailing arms and apply plenty of grease to the splines when its put back together - so if you ever wish to adjust the ride height at a later date both the torsion bars will be nice and easy to move.
