Are All Rear Beams Interchangeable In 205's

[Bigfoot773 0 1 Cars]

We got a J reg 205 diesel van at work which has a MOT test fastly approaching, but its sitting on its ass at the moment needing a new rear beam. Iv lined up another 205 which is a phase 1 L reg 5dr diesel, the rear beam looks straight and in good condition but before i buy, i wanted to know if rear beams are interchangeable throughout 205's. If anyone could help me as soon as possible id be very grateful.

Yes they are.

beams are interchangeable but they do have different diameter torsion bars and anti roll bar for different models. The van may not take any load if they are wrong

The 1 litre 5 door will have the thinnest torsion bars and probably no anti roll bar, the van will have gti spec torsion bars and possibly an anti roll bar

 

Anti roll bars are easily swapped but the torsion bars aren't as easy

 

If the van is sitting on its arse I would probably not re use it's Tbs
