[Mini] how low can you go?

[Dr John C Bullas]

Well the rear arches have been modified to eradicate the overhang and some
gaz adjustabes (shortened for lowered vehicles) ... apart from working out
how to get the f**king gaitor back on the knuckle joint that is....

The front is a different matter: you can save ££££'s by buying a set of
lowered front shockabsorber mountings with the pivit shaft about 15mm
higher up .... unless you have front brace bars and and expansion tank bang
where the top of the shockers will be..... after the inner wing got welded
up where the surface rust extended into full depth rot!

Now as the front shockers on the car are well shafted generic standard
shock absorbers without adjusters so the rear GAZ will be joined with a set
in front
Now the front arches will need opening up (hello mr tin snips) then

The bottom of the car will need a bit of work to add skid plates to the
leading edges of the exhaust boxes and possibly an extension of the sump
guard back to somewhere

Any how, no fires, no holes, no tears.... MOT friday - just need to spin up
the front discs to get rid of the surface rust
