Irish Mini Owners Club

Your clutch would have been a 184mm and the '93 could be a 190mm Does the smoke smell like clutch pad wearing. I would be worried about the primary gear seizing on the crankshaft. I can't think of anything else that would cause a lot of heat. remind me what work was done around clutch and drop gears...

both look good , thats a tough call

Yes the rear subframe is rummer mounted so constantly moving and will wear the insulation off the cable. Well done on getting it running. If you can't get the dizzy in the right position because the vacuum advance is hitting the oil pipe you can turn the dizzy 90 deg clockwise and than move the lead...

Just checking, the battery cable goes under and not over the rear subframe.

The Pink/white wire is restive over its entire length ,ie ohms/meter. the last approx 2" has two connectors and I thought it should be White. The two connectors are male and female spades. To connect the wire to the fusebox you remove a White wire from the fusebox and connect to the male spade ...

The speedo has 2 illumination bulbs, looks like one is not working.I have just checked the wiring diagrams and I don't think your car should have a ballast coil system.

did you change any of the door rubbers or glass. earlier cars had thicker glass.

The center binnacle never came with the top dash cover. Personally I prefer to cover the top rail in black leather or vynal .

Its the front that will determine weather or not you need arches.Looking good

You need to get it finished so you can start doing an estate, them babies come with a lot of accessories these days. Congratulations

Very interesting video on converting your classic Mini to EV.

Great work your doing. Usually I fit the handbrake cable and all the brake pipes and hoses to the subframe before mounting it.
Why have you used adjustable tie rods when everything else is standard?

Love the colour, that might require a chrome grill.

Yes ,unless you sell it to your misses.

I wouldn't be rushing to BMW unless you know a particularly good one. I would think one of the main windsrceen fitting services would be the best people for the job. I would think most of the main dealers contract those jobs out anyway.

Never thought too much about it before but I guess as its a rain water gully it makes sense to seal it up.

"Other side finished up this evening, almost forgot the spacer between bearing and inner dust seal"

Haven't done a bearing for a while but the only spacer I remember is between the two bearings!

SOLD

Sold that set but I have another without drive flanges if your interested.

55 psi is good pressure for cranking speed.
Only the early driveshaft came in narrow and wide, all pot joint shafts are the same except after market items.

Sorry somebody else saw my post and is buying them from me. I think I may have a second set but they will also need a complete refurbish if your interested.

You can keep the inner CV and driveshaft, only need to change to bigger outer CV for discs.

My previous post didn't work for some reason.
If there is liquid in your CV it may be engine oil, there is a bung in the middle of the joint that sometimes leaks allowing engine oil to enter the CV joint

What are you looking for?
I have these
