Rear beam/torsion bar seals when replacing
#5

You can get both stub pins and all bearings on ebay from a Polish seller for around £90. Someone on here who wrote a guide about it bought them and as far as I know they were fine.

I can't remember if there is any difference with an xzara vts ARB, but the torsion bars differ, they are 21mm as opposed to the 19mm Gti ones. Some of the late estates also had these torsion bars.

Thanks Smile So with them being 21mm as opposed to the 19/20mm GTi ones, would I still be able to use the kit in that link or would the seals/bearings not fit the thicker one?

Also can you use the same kit for both sides?

Thanks
