The only real dramas you may have is the normal stuff with any mini, the rear trailing arm may have some play in them, wheel bearings may need to be replaced, along with brakes, hoses, wheel cylinders. Are you swaping over subbies or building a car from a scratch? |

Just get a bare rear subby, give it a lick of paint, then swap everything over. Should only take a full day, maybe two. Whilst your at it, just give everything a once over and your on your way. |

im pretty sure i need everything on the left side as the wheel is tucked in a fair way and was rubbing on shock absorber. ive bent it back from the shock now tho so its sort of driveable. TUCK3R |

Guys like John Leffler at St george steering can fix issues with bent/out of alignment rear subframes, changing the whole thing may not be nessacary. Doogie |
