I have to remove the rear subframe from my clubman due to damage (its why i failed my blue slip) ... i have another one from my roundie. Two questions:

1. Will it fit my clubman?
2. Is there much involved in the change-over?

1. Will it fit my clubman? is the replacement from a wet roundie?? then yes...
2. Is there much involved in the change-over? fuel and brake line dissassembly and 4 bolts....

A wet or dry rear will fit and vice versa. Disconnect steel brake line from limiting valve. Disconnect fuel line from tank. Remove tank. Disconnect handbrake cables (either at the drumbrake end (messy) or front the handbrake mechanism in the cabin. Support Subframe of raised rear of car. Undo 8 bolts lower subframe and remove. Installation is the reverse of extraction :wink:
