  • Astra CV joints/rear beam

    We have a 235BHP XE-engined rally Mk2 Astra. We keep destroying outer CV joints. Does anyone know of a heavier-duty CV joint or fix?

    Also, if you bolt on the 16V disc-braked rear beam onto an 8V GTE, will the brake bias be ok without any other modification?

      My kadett was a 1.6S and I just lobbed the rear beam in.
      I have had no problems, even in a high speed emergency stop situation.
      If its still a concern then source the brake bias valves from a 16v.
