Rear Beam Opinions

Recommended Posts

MKrisz92

Hey there! I have a 309 gti16 rear beam as a leftover from my previous car, which needs to be refurbished. I also have a beam which is still in a pretty nice shape, as it has done ~110.000 km under the car. Now I'd like a bit stiffer end on my cabrio, can I... mix the two beams? I dont want the wider 309 beam, I dont want it to rub as it will be lovered a bit. Can I somehow put the gti16 arb/tb and disc brake setup onto the base beam I have? Is it possible? Normal 1.9 gti beams are like impossible to find here in Hungary :(

You can swap the disc brakes to the 205 beam, but the 309 torsion bars and anti-roll bar are too long to fit the 205 tube.

:/ And can I bring those beams to have them cut or modified (properly of course) to make it the same length? Is there anything else I should swap? I've never had one disassembled, I don't know what parta are there, these were always... scary parts for me :D
