Hey, rare to come by with the full setup attached... but if you're flexible... I will show you a rear beam and a st170 rear setup for sale...??

no such thing as a 'racing puma' rear beam really ...it's a standard part from that production line of Puma..... the hassle of the ABS and handbrake cable just isn't worth the effort of converting it all over TBH....

Yes you can use your standard rear beam. For FRP width you need spacers:

But shope for them... you get them much cheaper, or speak to williamsclio, he sometimes makes the 30mm ones

So on the conversion kit for sale is that all the bits you will need then or it there more stuff

 

[Flying Scotsman]

Need to see whats on the back of them but yes I believe its a complete setup

 

[Tommo1990]

Do u think they are worth 150

 

[ScubaSteve]

isnt a mega bad price really, you may get a bit cheaper nosing around ebay

 

[Tommo1990]

Ok cheers mate I have tried lookin but jus cant find nothing lol Perhaps I ain't looking hard enough

 

[Flying Scotsman]

Have you tried sending messages to all the people that have a vehicle listed as 'breaking'?

 

[Tommo1990]

No but I'll have a look

 

[Tommo1990]

So on the other on that u give me the link, you won't need wheels spacers with any of them I've got 16' gti wheels in ten that's ok ain't it

 

[Flying Scotsman]

What does 'I've got 16' gti wheels in ten' mean??

You originally asked for an FRP rear Beam. The FRP Set up differed from standard by having 20.5mm Rear axle spacers and the Press cars had 30mm spacers. Now some people even have 40mm and I know of one person with 50mm.

So if youre not aft an 'FRP' setup then no you don't need spacers....

I have 30mm on mine...

 

[Tommo1990]

I've got 16' gti wheels on is that ok. Predicted txt so shit lol. So what spacers would u recommend(wot size)
Cheers

[Tommo1990]
