Just need to wait for the weather to hold off for me to fit them to the car! But if its a good week next week, weather wise, I could posssable see the mini on its four wheels again!
And you guys will too!

That’s a shame as the weathers mean to be nice at the week end (I hope)

I can put up with a little bit of shitty weather, its just a down pour i can't stand!

[Dog]

Well bit by bit the Mini has now got 3 wheels


Subframe on!
Took me 3hours to get it all on, and ready! and poly bushes are a pain in the arse lol!


Raidus arm fitting...
Had to use a bit of wood to prop the arm up for a second...


All bolted on, shock mounted and ready to fit...


All Fitted
Just need some final fettling with the hi-lo's so I don't do any damage when I lower the Mini back onto its wheels, just got the otherside to fit, and the exharst to fit! and then its ready for winter storage
