So I have a 1978 mini clubman but have a dry pre 1976 front subframe can I still use this on my clubman or do I have to modify the tower bolts.
The tower bolt is different on dry 1976 onwards than dry pre 1976.

Australian Minis never changed to the single tower bolt mount. |

Don't believe what you see on the web. Not in Australia it's not. All our Clubby subframes were 2 bolt, right to the end. The Poms went to the single bolt mount setup so they could rubber mount the subframe for crap handling. |

How come you see some sub frames with studs instead of bolts? |

Most hydro ones had bolts & I think most dry had studs but not all. |
