Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - Foxy-jim - 06-03-2012

Are you putting on a drum beam?


RE: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - declantg - 06-03-2012

Yeah for now Smile


Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - Foxy-jim - 06-03-2012

Oh haha. Fair enough then. Should be a bit easier.


Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - Toms306 - 06-03-2012

Also just thought, if you need new handbrake cables, it'd be the ideal time to change them while the drums are off.


Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - ginge191 - 06-03-2012

WHY drums and standard struts - would be cheaper and better to get some cheap coilies and a disc beam Doh Doh


Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - Toms306 - 06-03-2012

Everyone knows drums are ftw.....especially red ones! lol

Rear discs suck ass. Drums are lighter.

And actually work.


Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - Foxy-jim - 06-03-2012

Disks aren't that bad!

ever tried stopping fairly quick from 80/90 - my drums were horrendous! discs were on and were fantastic!
for my built at least, the response from the discs feel much better

Every day ninja

You can still put your hand on the drums after too, they don't get all that warm...


Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - Ruan - 06-03-2012

Drums are better tbh...

But frankly, I could never deal with the looks, and I'm part of team "Unintentional Rat Look"... Everyone laughs if you've got drums - simple as!


Re: Changing front struts over and swapping rear beam - Foxy-jim - 06-03-2012

As Ruan said, they do look way better!
