    kangoo van rear suspension dropped one side

    Thanks for reply ratm. No springs on rear, It has an axle beam with torsion bars, which i don't no to much about . Been doing some checking and i think one of these has slipped on the splines. If it is this, i'm unsure if it can be repaired or if it is an axle beam replacment. rob.
