after looking a b9kos thread i like the look of a better rear beam! how much will they set me back by?

 

heard they are about a grand

dave

 

brom does a quality beam and a good price

 

i think broms star just over 500 quid

 

good price i was looking at the 1k-1.5k mark

 

Ł550 for Broms basic beam i think
Ł850-Ł1000 for a strapped beam from Brom, Ahmed, Or Danny
Ł1650+VAT for Dannys gucci beam that Richie has.

There all rough prices so dont quote me on that.

 

strapped beam sounds good

 

nash when u done with that breather

 

Will bring it back next Sunday when i go back home to work on the skip......i mean Saph.

 

cool as thats the only thing im waiting on now do i need any adapters as i have std breather at mo

 

gucci beam ?

is that some designer beam then?

 

wants to be for the price

 

i paid Ł800 for my beam off brom and well worth it go for it you wont diserpointed

 

Do a search for B9 KOS rear beam you will see what i mean, its rear beam porn

 

whats the main things you notice when u got one of these beam fitted?

 

Roosie theres a massive thread about it in GD somewhere going on about Cossie handling just do a search bud.

 

I cant do links off here, the original post was started by JjCoDeX75 its worth a read.

 

my basic beam as you put it does same job as all my beams geometry wise just a entry price for a none strengthened trailing arms (same as others )
its also had full adjustability of toe angle as well where as dannys and ahmeds does not this is most important when trying to get stabilitly
its nearly half the price but does twice as much !!!!!!!

 

And mines heading to Brom within the next two weeks
Just depends when i get back up to Martoon's next.

 

Sorry Brom didn't mean it like that bud. I know what it does as you have told me. I just ment its your basic start point beam and you can spec them up if you need to for other things.

 

This is mine Only a slight mod needed to the exhaust to allow me to keep the nice quiet Magnex

 

Bit dissapointed in you Dave!!

all that painting and buftying you did on the rear beam, then you over look these 2 bits?

Tut Tut

 

how hard is it to change the bush thats either side of rear beam neat the mount were the 3 bolts go on?

 

I think Danny's are cheaper than that, WITH rear arms.. Dont quote me though..

And he can do ALL adjustability IF the customer wants it....

 

holy crap that looks awsome bet it weighs half as much too!

 

supose it woul dnt be worth me getting one until i sorted out a uprated gearbox!

 

Each arm is 6kg lighter through the use of T45 tube

And as everyone knows(or should ) removing unsprung weight is so important

 

unsprung weight is important hence i did this to my car and cause i wanted something diffent

 

im sorry but i wouldnt even attampt to run my car with those rear arms on

 

markk Why

 

imagine you just load the wheel slightly on the rim edge, , kerb, gravel trap at speed, whats going to bend , and bend pretty easily by the looks, its just a bent piece of tube ? T45 on its own does not eqaual strength im afraid, even on a tarmac event they would bend with relative ease im afraid. i would hope to be wrong, but i think not many would bet against me

 

markk im with you,, i would much rather see the arms triangulated

 

Having bent a few standard arms/ beams hitting kerbs its only a matter of time before they are tested

 

interesting reading

 

Triangulated in which plane/way Gareth ?

 

across each arm,,,,, just above the joints

remember the joints are bearings so they could move

 

They are bearings so they WILL move Are you thinking side to side in the beam pick ups ??

 

sorry i wasnt very clear,,,, if enough load came aound the side of the arm,,,, the arm could move,, and the bearings wouldnt stop the force
