this jig info is good. A jig cost mega bucks and for each car you have to have a set of mounts and bits more mega bucks, so iI can understand them costing so much.

you probably find it *doesnt* crab:
- the back end of a mini is narrower than the front: anyone following will generally assume the car is crabbing as they can see the rear quarter!
- worn suspension, especially the rear can cause a 'crab', especially cheap rear subframes...

my car has was fitted with a rear subby just before i brought it according to the previous owner

i was told by 1340_clubby_estate my car goes down the road sideways

and my floor where the lower subframe mounts meet is all rippled???
