yep had a good ask around on them but most of them ask silly money for rusty rubbish.
Dont mind doing some work on the bits but the sort of money they think they are worth
I'm in no rush for them but just thought I would see if I can help someone clear out their garage

I suppose it's because a lot of people transfer them onto older minis.


Lotusmark2 - 27/2/05 at 09:05 AM

yeah, I think so.
If push comes to shove when I really need them I will pick up a whole mini for about £100 and strip it but we shall see how things go.

Try sending a U2U to Donut, he's just rebuilt a mini and got alot of his new parts from a friend of his 'mini dave'
Hope it helps

Could you use Metro bits - probably cheaper, and very similar with the advantage of vented discs.

Take it you want the shafts with inboard CV joints if you are after 8.4 inch discs.

Hi yep after the whole drive train.
Metro stuff would be ok as long as it is from the A series engine and not the K series.
Cheers
