   Im taking a rear beam off a car at the scrappy and just wanted to confirm what needs to be done before i get there please
   
   is it just the four bolts in the interior floorplan or is there more? Do i need to undo anything underneath the car?
   
   thanks

   cut brake lines and handbrake cable. Then drop the beam off.

    They will re attach, but for the sake of £17 for new ones you may aswell buy new for peace of mind.
