New rear beam - Moonwalker - 18-04-2015
Hi guys,
Well after driving my car for 4 weeks now I've come to the conclusion she needs a new rear beam.
One side of the car is slightly higher than the other, and it doesn't feel very stable cornering, even at 30 going round a roundabout.
Where could I get a reconditioned rear beam? And what would the cost be?
All comments welcome as always.

Stef205 on here does a healthy trade in rebuilt rear beams.

Might be worth checking it's not a dead shock causing one side to sit lower than the other

Thanks for the replies guys!
I'll ask my mechanic to check the shocks when she goes in for her driveshaft seal and brakes.
What price is it roughly for a new Phase 2 rear beam? And can you buy one that lowers the suspension a little?

I can sort you with a recon beam if needed. I can set it to your required height and use oem quality parts. As been kindly posted previously check out my thread for my budget builds should you not want to spend a lot.

Thanks Stef, if the shock isn't away I'll be purchasing a new rear beam from you!
Would you need my beam in return?
