Okay adding to this I don't think I can be bother to rebuild the beam myself, given I don't have access to a press to re fit the trial arm shafts, also the idea of spending £100 on the rebuild kit to find out it I still need a cross member tube doesn't appeal to me.
I think i'm going to buy a refurbed beam from IM Axle or somewhere similar £205 with a 2 year warranty doesn't sound too bad to be although they would take away my axle but unless someone on here has a decent gti-6/ rallye beam I could have I don't think its a viable option to rebuild my beam myself.
Whilst changing the beam is it worth changing to solid beam mounts? I want to track the car at some point in it's lifetime and even if I don't I'm not fussed about cabin noise or reduced comfort too much as I really don't do massive journeys in the car.
