Rear beem/arb question

Recommended Posts

I'm a bit new to Corrados so forgive me for being dumb :scratch:

 

When I took off my rear wheels at the weekend, I noticed that I was able to get the rear beem to twist very easyly, perhaps as much as 4-5 inch up and down (at the wheel, with the other side still on the floor) and tbh, I was very suprised not to find an anti roll bar on it! (Doesn't look like there ever was either.... though I do need new glasses :lol:

 

 

Can I retro fit one? or will I need to replace the beam?

 

(It's a really late '89 16v btw ;) )

 

 

 

Cheers :)

the standard anti roll bar is inside the rear beam, if you look at the rear of the beam you should see a round steel tube that is welded at either end and has a rubber bush in the middle.

the rear beams do flex a bit as thats the way they where designed, an additional rear anti roll bar should improve the handling a bit, but make it too stiff and it will mess up the handling.
