yup, about £50 in total, never taken one apart though I have lowered one, it was a doodle even though it had never been apart (Vicki's track car)

Thats good, I didn't realise there were so few parts

Don't forget the price for the thicker partner torsion bars .......

Problem with 405 beams is the bearing surfaces on one side is usually gone.

 

So instead of having the possibility to only change the bearing shaft as on the 305/309/306 design on the 405 you have to change the complete beam tube (as the shafts are pressed into the tube instead of into the arm). And that's not cheap!

 

Hopefully yours is ok, but I've had 4 of these beams apart and 3 of them were completely gone on one side, and the last one was perfect on one side but was starting to go on the other. I've put it togeather as that though and will just have to see how long it will last.

got it in bits, one side is slightly worn but nothing to worry about, the other side is perfect!
