Hey everyone,
My mini is too low at the front, it has been sat around for a very long time before I bought it . What would I replace to raise it up? I'm guessing the it's low because it's old and been sitting around for a long time. I know minis are low , but mine is lower than usual.

Cheers Bilkey

Does it squeak and squawk? If so its worn and dry knuckles as said above.

If its a 1960s car with hydro suspension, that may lost pressure.

If it has rubber suspension, the "cones" shrink over time and make the car drop.
