In part one we will look at what needs to be done to refurbish the dashboard and steering column, and we will take everything apart.
In part two we will fix everything and put it all back together.

Best video I have seen in disassembling a Morris dash. Is going to be such a help for me. Thanks from New Zealand

Very informative video. Thanks. Hoping to get another Morris minor after selling mine 40 years ago.

Always a good idea (as you mention) to leave the steering wheel nut on a few threads. That way if you are pulling hard on the wheel, the nut will stop you getting hit in the face if it should come up suddenly.
It’s also possible to remove and replace the drivers side glovebox surround and then the liner with the steering wheel in place.

You can just about get the driver’s side glove box out with the wheel in place, but it’s significantly easier if you remove it.

Very helpful video! What's the name of the tool you used to remove the lock washers on the dash switches?

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Thanks! They are usually called a Switch Nut Removal Tool.
