Just wondering if anyone locally does rear trailing arm refurbishment? Seems like it's a bit of a fiddly job and I'd rather it done properly then me mess it up 4 times before its right..

Cheers

Sean

Mini Classic (Greig Malaure) does them in Sydney. So does Mini King I think.

I'd buy brand new kad ones or something if I wasn't poor..

Not sure how reasonable postage would be to Sydney.. Hmm might give link a shout

it's not that much of a hassle to do it yourself - just need an adjustable reamer - you'd be capable

I expect Lindsay can do them too, or any respectable machinist or old school mechanic

Where can I get a reamer? I like doing things myself providing Its not going to be too hard

Any half decent 'old style' mechanic's workshop would probably ream them for less than the cost of a reamer that you'll probably never use again.

make sure you buy a spare bush - it's easy to go too far with that one last cut
