Changing rear beam/ Steering wheel problem - E_KEL95 - 12-11-2014
Friend has a 95 phase 1 which failed MOT due to a goosed shock but when I looked at it I noticed that both sides are cambered so obviously the axle has had its day, what I want to know is would I be fit to bit a beam from a hdi which has disks into his as his has drums?
EDIT:
Another failure item one his list was the steering wheel was fit to be rocked up and down, hard to explain but if you grab the top of it and pull up and down the wheel rocks up and down, the MOT man said something about a bush or something needed replaced but its something ive never heard of before or seen any one shed any light on the matter?

Discs are fine to be fitted just need to swap handbrake cables as well.
also if it has abs just cut the connections off. It doesnt change them beam at all.

ph1 may well have the brake comp, the disc beam probably doesnt, make sure you swap that onto the disc beam!

Steering column bushes/bearings wear over time, that's probably your wheel issue, low mileage column is probably the easiest fix.
