With the age of these minis now its not much more work to take the complete hub and shock together as that pinch bolt can snap i have done this as it safer just remember this mini in video has new components eg new shock which is why it is easy to get apart
At 3:20, are you sure the washers go in this order? Is the dished washer supposed to go up or down? You put it going up and I wanted to make sure that was correct? Thank you for showing the detail of the washers, most other videos skip this step!
Out of curiosity, why put copper grease on the mounting face? As a life long engineer I’ve always been taught to keep mounting faces as clean as possible as to not cause an uneven mounting.
