Hi All, Spent some time tonight with the old man stripping the front subframe from the mini k. I want to convert the car from hydrolastic to dry suspension. Anyone know how to get these out?? Attachment: IMG_4001.JPG Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Give them a twist. They're just seated in there. There is a bracket held in by two Phillips screws which have to be removed as well. |

As Mick said they twist - anticlockwise - just like a bayonet light globe. I think the bracket has to come out first. The displacer might need a light tap to break the rust. I also remember wrapping something like an old fan felt around it held with vice-grips to get better grip. If you don't damage them they should be worth something. |

Couple of love taps with a hammer. Loads of lannox and a counter clockwise turn and out they came! Solid advice team. Many thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
