ausmini :: View topic - removing front and rear subframes

can you wait till the weekend !

if you have a cd burner i can loan you a dvd of all mini manuals plus service and sales masters and a mechanics course... being local (sorta)If you want to burn yourself a copy i will trust you to take the disc, provided you can come to the cold toast to pick it up...
prolly give you a few pointers too while your here..
my new burner doesnt like my computer LOL...I HATE BILL GATES

Would this info be able to be posted or uploaded to me?
I would really appreicate it. :lol:

I really cant figure out where the last 4 bolts are for the front subframe.
There are 8 yes? 4 inside of the car, 2 for the uprights and then 2 at the front somewhere????????????

how? does anyone have piccies to illustrate? i have the haynes manual no. 64 but you really do need to know wtf you are doing to follow...and...i dont

if anyone could help with some info it'd be GREATLY appreciated.

edit: removing with everything attached that is...i am after the bare shell here...not the subframes themselves

subframes are simple, just disconnect everything attached, like the spension stuff, and then dont forget to disconnect the steering ... like i did

then find all the bolts....but i dunno what to do with the hydro? you would have to release the pressure to disconnect the lines im guessing? :?:
