1100 bulletproof..

[DomMINIque]

Thanks guys. Didn't know such a tool existed. Will definetly be putting it on my chirstmas list.

Got a lot done today but didn't enjoy myself as much as yesterday.
Also forgot about the photos so they are pretty much just pieces from the whole day.
I'll go take some more tomorrow most probably of the current situation.

Set the gazebo up so I could work in the shade as these temperatures in JHB are reaching some crazy highs. Today apparently highest recorded by a friend's bicycle computer was 39°C.



Removed the engine steady. I was quite surprised what a difference this makes. Engine was completely wobbly once it came out.



Dropped the gear lever. It seems every single little thing needs to be pressure washed. The sand is EVERYWHERE!



This is a front subframe bolt on the blue mini. Had a little towing incident with the A frame and hence bent this little guy quite badly.



Front passenger side subframe bolt removed



Front drivers side subframe bolt removed. This side, as you can see in the pic, is quite off so a little persuasion with a crowbar convinced the bolt to come out.



This is for anyone that reads this, and myself when I forget. These are the bolts that hold the sterring rack in place.



These are the bolts that hold the front subframe to the car. It's the same for the drivers side.



The drivers side subframe bolt. The hole in the floor actually made this really easy to do this by myself as I could reach both.
I seriously don't know why there are no captive nuts for on a mini as it would definetly make doing this alone so much easier. I will definetly be doing this when they all go back together as it's a necessary improvement.
