How desperate are you? I have one in Taunton, but it will be required for a week or so to move the shell around. I've no rebuild history for it, but there's no signs of camber and it's freely moving. £100

    Me and armzs16 both have beams from Jord. We cant fault them. Mines been on for 2 years or so and covered 30k miles and still drives perfectly. The seals that usually go are still in great condition. If you go for a nee beam id recommend a new set of beam mounts too.

    many thanks for your advice
    I was just trying to distinguish the difference between a quality beam from this guy
    and a beam from a mass manufacturer of refurbished beams
    as there is £150 difference

    Those guys are an hour or so from you. Fitting is included in the price and you get a years warranty. They buy genuine bearings etc from Peugeot.

    recently with so many questions about the beams i supply, i feel the need to clarify

    prices for 'as new' axles are from £425.00 inc a px
    there is a fitting cost of £140.00 (small additional cost for any extra parts needed)

    i do not use crosstubes that show signs of collapsed/worn outer bearings. they are scrapped straight away!
    my axles are supplied with excellent or new crosstubes (and have not been machined and sleeved)
    my axles are stripped completely, shot blasted and parts powdercoated (not stripped, rebuilt and then painted)
    axles are built satin black with red oxide powdercoat torsion bars (any other colour possible, but at extra cost)
    parts i use are new genuine parts, from bushes to half nuts. (i even supply the superior quality nadella outer bearings with continuous needle rollers, which i had to buy in a large quantity from germany)
    my axles come with matched trailing arms
    my disc axles come complete with excellent hubs
    for anyone who wants an axle fitting, i have a timescale of around 2.5 - 3hrs
    no extra cost for setting initial ride height (the height will be set when the beam is built from scratch)
    dependant on stock i have, a beam can be built within a couple of hours
    part exchange as 'like for like' prefered please
    i will consider buying gti axles offered, if interested parties don't actually want to buy a rebuilt beam off me
    collection prefered. although i can put axle on a pallet and package at small extra cost (buyer to arrange their own courier)
    when out of stock there is a 2 - 4 week delay in supplying a rebuilt axle, as the powdercoater i use is always busy


    thanks for all interest, and thanks for taking time to read

    Yeah, i cant grumble with Jord. Was a long drive from Maidstone in Kent but was a nice day out and worth the drive. I cant comment on the other companies as ive obviously never used them.
