I just replaced all my rubber springs and knuckle joints, along with shocks. Am I really going to regret not going to Hi-Los? Getting the old ones out and the new ones in was an absolute nightmare to tell the truth. Top arm removal is nothing short of infuriating.

You don't need hi-lows, very few people who fit them actually use them for there intended purpose anyways.

Depends what you mean by "came out easy" if it was because they needed hardly any extra compressing to get the trumpets clear with the wheels off the floor, that's a fair sign they are tired!
For your money, new cones are about the best way to transform a Mini - if you thought it cornered and handled well before, prepared to be amazed when it gets back on the road.

I'm really glad to hear this. I just did a four-corner service on my suspension. New shocks, new knuckle joints, new subframe bushings, new rubber springs. I can't wait til the snow gtfos so I can swing it around some corners.
