I know this is an old thread. I have a 1973 Clubman GT with Hydrolastic suspension. The right side goes down after a very very long time with no visible leaks. Also the front seems to go higher than the rear. Could there just be air in the system. I have been using a converted grease gun to pump they system.

 

last time I pumped it to 450 psi each side. 

 

Thanks

When you say it goes down, is this after drive it or with it just sitting around?

 

How long does it take to drop?

 

In regards to the front rising, I'm just wondering if the struts on the rears have been shortened?

 

What condition are all the knuckle joints in?

 

One of my favorite Minis,,, If you're interested in a few more, give me a shout,,,
