I am looking into buying a rear axle for my car (disc brakes)

the one i can get hold of will have come from a flood damaged car,

what problems will i have with this, been told about possible problems with bearings etc?

Anyone shed any light on this for me

Thanks

Watch the price if you're thinking of redoing the bearings. I've heard the ones used in conversion beams are fairly expensive to buy again
