Beam stripdown day, I knew this needed doing at some point and already had bearings in stock, picked a pair of shafts up from Neat Autos
Quite nicely finished, no branding at all on them.
felt pretty light which I don't remember them being so previously, maybe all the ones I've had before have been the smaller bore ones? I know the Febi spec is large bore, and these came out at a similar price but my local motorfactor never got back to me after I asked them to order a pair, so sod them, they might even be on the shelf for all I know :lmao
Take one beam, weighs a fair bit as is there! Fat torsion bars too, not the original 21's ;)
Got to use part of my recent tool kit purchase.
Still don't know what half of these are meant to be used for!
But this one was ruddy obvious ;)
Set it so I didn't have to faff remembering to measure when I re-assemble.
Pulled the dampers and torsion bars brake calipers etc off, then pulled the trailing arms out.
Left this pile of dust from one side!
So yeah, it was dead but not seized!
they had one as they (peugeot/citroen) haven't been using a 16v XU for some time and they are stainless so don't need replacing unless lost!...
