I am rebuilding My mini completely and am now doing front brakes I have removed subframe from car and dismantled it I have decided to change disc as they are in poor condition is it possible to get drive flange nuts out with the car in bits

I tried today but with no luck

I am soakingthe bolts overnight tonight

Any tips for tomorrow

Either drill 2 holes in a bit of bar that can slide over 2 studs or put wheel nuts back on and put a bar through so it's on the inside of one and the outside of the other.

New drive flanges from Mini Spares would nicely match your new discs.

As the old discs destined for scrap - pop disc into a bench vice - a socket on a long bar - or better an impact gun will have them free
