i know it's not a 106 forum, jings.
but is the rear axle hard to replace? I've done corsa one, so i thought it can't be much different, if naything easier due to torsion bar?
anyone done this before, point me towards a wee walk through or anything!

i done one on a 306 about 2 years ago, havnt reli got involved in the old stuff of peugeot lately,
i do know that it was a bitch to change, i had to get the torsion bar perfect tho as it was a customers car.
depends if you want it perfect as you will need to get the splines on the torsion bar to be the same each side otherwise ull get one wheel higher than the other,
a tape measure is good to measure from the centre off the hub to the wheel arch.

if your just replacing it and not adjusting it its easy. think its 4 bolts that hold the whole lot to the underneath of the car. shocks and all that come away with it.
