Suspension prob

hi all, having trouble tracking down rear bushes for my williams, dont really want to have to fork out hundreds for a whole axel but tried some salvage companies to try track an axel down but there is no williams being broken anywhere, was wondering if any other axels would fit?

thanks vicki

19 16v maybe? I've never really compared Clio Vs 19 rear arms before the the track width is the same. Failing that a Clio 16v unit should go straight on and they're never too hard to find.

[vicki_clio]

thanks i did think the clio 16v might be the same but when you try order shocks the williams is different to that so thought it would be different

19 16v track is 15mm wider than williams due to the subframe being a tad wider, the rear beam is also different but the clio 16v rear beam i believe is exactly the same as a williams one

Put a post up in the wanted section, or look in the breaking cars section, tehre will be a valver or williams one knocking around, valver is same as williams one

any idea if the mountings are the same mate

Not a Clue mate! just did some homework for my widetrack using 19 shafts...

I have a Rear beam here which i was saving for my mates rt hybrid but i believe he will be better off sourcing the narrower rsi beam

£30 collected its yours

Where are you??

west wales mate :D

[number1]

Is that where you are maxi or where vicki_clio is??

[MAXIBOY]

me.... :D

[number1]

I thought so, but i was more pointing the question to vicki_clio as i have beam here if shes local'ish lol unless you want a rear beam for no reason at all maxi :lol:

[vicki_clio]

hiya, im in aberdeen :roll: but i could arrange for it to get picked up if ur selling it? is it off a williams?

[Coops]

1.8 16v clio rear beam is identical to williams, just willams shock absorbers are 'uprated', same fitment tho in terms of where they physically bolt so no issues using a 1.8 16v rear beam

[number1]

Yeh id sell it for £30 but im way down in cornwall, its a good clio 16v beam lowered 60mm i believe but you can adjust them easy

[vicki_clio]

thanks everyone for your help. ive managed to source one quite close to where i live. so hopefully have it sorted by next week :)
