    I don't own nor have I ever driven a Mini, but I do have a lot of respect for the car and what it's capable of. Your videography and range of informative and artistic views of your company and passion is very entertaining, even for a guy who's never had the chance to experience driving such a neat car. Keep up the good work @Stevestonmotorco

    good advice about diff side seals. in england guessworks gearboxes can supply side covers with the reamed bushes. make sure mister guessworks actually sends the stuff to your address though - twice ive had him decide that the address i gave him was wrong - so he posted my parts somewhere else. twice . you can of course visit him - that gets round the problem

      Haha that's unfortunate about the post. Much love to Guessworks though.

    I have a fair amount of play in my bushes. Is there a good chance that I also need new bearings? How often does that happen?

    • @Stevestonmotorco
      @Stevestonmotorco  4 роки тому +1

      We don't see them wear out too often, but it is possible for the bearings to wear some very deep grooves in the inner pot joints. If it drives well they are probably fine.
