also rear sub frame is the same but as the van is longer you will need a longer version of anything that stretches from the front to the rear of the vehicle, such as exhaust, brake lines, wiring loom etc.

Think of it like this.
BMC where like students.
They made as many parts fit as many cars as possible as it ment far less time hunting round for that one bolts.
75-80% of part on mini's are common to ALL mini's.

And if you also switch over the chassis & number plates that's ringing which is illegal.
