Rear beam stiff on one side
#1
Hi,

Ive got a 306 hdi estate and the rear beam is really stiff on one side only

The stiff side literally doesn't move so making the ride really hard (unbearable) over any type of bump / pothole.

From reading I can see this is probably down to worn trailing arm bearings? would this cause the axle to not move what so ever?

I was hoping that it would be a seized shock absorber, has anyone ever had the same symptoms from a seized rear shocker?

When I jack this side up the wheel doesnt move what so ever so dont really have to jack it very high.

The other side you have to keep jacking as the suspension is depressing.

Any help will be much appreciated.
