MK Motorsport make them and he often has them in stock. You can get them to take a Supra diff if you want and also lugs to take his bladed anti roll bar if you want it.

Probably worth calling him for an up to date price. Having a beam to trade in might help. His number is in my earlier reply.

MK is good but dont expect to receive the beam in the same year you ordered it.

i would talk to SCS unless MK can give you a promised date of delivery your happy with.

cheers si

I don't think his beam is in the same league but is a lot cheaper.

Those ones seem good value at Ł800, but guess they are fairly unknown/ proven?
Do people find the ride much harsher on rose joints vs bushes?

They are and also they retain all the brackets and fixing that are required for use in a road car. I have seen most of it chopped off the more expensive beams. No fitment problems at all.
The only item i have changed is to add rubber boots to the rose joint to keep the crap out. Mine also has mounts to adjust the ARB location for some adjustment.

If anyone is using a rose jointed beam on the road the joint need to have the boots fitted as it is now an mot fail.
I've not had any problem with joints fitted with boots but have had fail/worn out ones that were just open. They don't like grit and dirt in them there are side seals for the joints but I don't think they will work as well, but I've not used them before.

My car is rose jointed all round with no boots and it passed the MOT 2 weeks ago. I guess you need to have a nice MOT tester?
