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

Firstly check nothing has snapped underneath..... I am assuming your car in not hydrolasic and has rubber coned "dry" suspension? ( If it is hydrolasic, you may have lost fluid ). It is most likely your front rubber donuts worn. Just replace them, you can use " hi-los" too to give you lots of adjustment ride height wise.

.... the first thing to check is the knuckle joint at the bottom of the front trumpet on each side, which if the plastic cup has work, it will tend to sit low!!
