Hi,

I have just purchased a Morris 68 Mini Deluxe (first Mini) the hydrolastic suspension is down on the drivers side front & rear, does anyone know if I can get someone to come out and top up the suspension? I can not drive the car as is, I live in Manly in Sydney.

Thanks,

Brad

There's a guy on here (clubmn) that comes to you. Can't remember how much but I think he's around your area.

Otherwise go to a mini specialist or someone that know's a bit about mini's who works on mini's and they may have a pump up machine. Otherwise make your own, that's what a fair few people have done on here.

BTW, welcome to ausmini.

Welcome to ausmini Brad .

Sorry Nick , clubmn's in Melbourne whereas Brad's in Sydney (unless there's yet another Manly??) . There are a fair few people in Sydney with home made pumps , plus you can doa search on here about hydro pumps and should find instructions on how to make one from a grease gun (cheapest and easiest I think ) .

You can drive it very slowly, up to 30MPH in the old money...there is a Mini place at Brookvale (GBs Moke and Mini World)....they should be able to help you.

Thanks Sports, I just did a search and found that :oops: You're all southerner's to me anyways!

This is a really good thread I found on making your own pump.
