Suspension Overhaul... need input and advice!!!

[lgomgf]

Dear Mini owners,

Would anyone with experience care to let me know what should I buy to do a complete overhaul of my mini suspension, I have a 1993 1.3i...

I already bought some parts (hilo, negative arms, poly bushes and shocks) from mini sports http://www.minisport.com/mini-spare-parts/info_SUS... , but that was before I went underneath the car and noticed that some gaiters are leaking... Also as a novice mechanic i forgot to check which parts I need.

I know that I want the springs from Minispares http://minispares.com/Product.aspx?ty=pb&pid=3... , I talked to Guru on another forum and, correct me if I am wrong, I can run those with the "hilos" that I already have.

What else should I buy? Links to minispares would be appreciated, I dont know if i should do this at the forum but since I want to buy te springs from them I would get all other parts there too...

Many thanks,

L.

the hilos will work fine with the coil springs, i use the cheaper ones on my minitastic ones (which he will supply at the time of purchase if you ask)

you wont really know what parts you need until its all in bits and inspected

If you want to improve the way the car drives dont forget the subframe mounts.

Just ordered a few parts from minispares, gaiters and bushes, and of course the springs... Let's see when I pull apart if I will be missing something
