Did mine 3yrs ago. I live in France but had the arms rebushed by Minimine in England when visiting family back home. Collected the next day saved me the time & buying of tools !!! Good video, take care Dave. Dave's 1987 Mini rebuild project ( F/book)
If only i could upload pictures god knows how many minis I've rebuilt love them i could draw every part on paper top man this fella is a top man
Wouldn't it be better to ream the bronze bushing without the needle bearing in place, so no cuttings get inside it?
It would, but the roller bearing is the perfect support and it’s in its final place. I do it up the other way instead so gravity sorts the issue
Great video Cole, really indepth and clear instruction. Thank you also for the shout out.
Nicely done! I used a puller kit from eBay for the needle bearing and the drift with the reaming kit made short work of the bush. Insertion of the new parts was done with a 10mm threaded rod and the nice thick washers from the tired old parts.
thanks for the fine guide of installing the brakeshoes. it was a great help for my own mini
Great video and awesome sense of humour (20:25 - thats what she said). Love all your DIY Mini videos. I've got a 1969 Mini K, and while I have the official Leyland Workshop manual - there's alot of assumed knowledge in the manual.. Cheers from Newcastle Australia
Thanks for the shout out. The drift you have should remove both the old bush and needle roller bearing without the need for a puller. Love the finish on the arms
I couldn't quite figure out punching them both out. Do you punch one into the radius arm first and then dig it out?
@@classicminidiy I would guess that you could probably punch both out with punch that’s long enough, you just made it the proper way, great work as always
@@classicminidiy You use the drift in the bush end to push the bush through the middle and that then pushes out the grease tube and the roller bearing all in one pass
@@classicminiworkshop Yeah that would have been way easier hahaha. Well now I know for next time!
Wow really good video with alle the chapters!! Just perfect💪
little advice: the plastic tubes tend to burst if you overdo first (all) lubrication! that’s real fun - you did the job, and ruin it at the last step. priceless 😂
My radius arm is taking on massive load of grease (20 pumps) without showing from the end bushes. Do u think my plastic liner is cracked?

@@paulsmith-me1ls if your pump is working - for sure ...
Really detailed video bud. Will be very useful when I get around to doing mine 👍
nice video! now I can replace them myself after 28 years of mini ownership :)
Glad I could help! Now get out in that garage! :-)
@@classicminidiy need spare parts first and a reamer....
Really useful, well explained video. Thanks
They came out nice. Top job.
nice job filming, everything was very clear and well framed
Thanks David!
I`m just about rebuilding my radius arms for my 75 Inno 1300. Watching your video helped me finishing that job nicely - thank you for sharing!
What I´m left with is the radial play that I found on both radius arms - that play is about 0,2mm, which I think is too much...
From the theorie the tolerances of radius arm + shaft + xxx sum up and you need to "adjust" the installation somehow.
My idea is to install the roller bearing NOT fully home, but stand off a couple of x/10mm and press that bearing home with the actual used shaft.
This results in Zero axial play.
Question to you: how do you set your axial play??
Thank you for a breif response.
Great video thank you for sharing the knowledge! Do you grease up the new rods and plastic housing or just fit them all dry?
I usually add a little bit of grease as they go in but then apply the primary amount of grease when they are installed on the subframe with a grease gun.
Is it ok to grease the bearings after fitting the radius arm on the car? I put a thin film of grease on the shaft before sliding it into the arm and greased it with a grease gun afterwards. Must be ok, what do you think?
Great video! Well done. Questions: there is a thick washer and thin washer for the radius arm. Which side takes thick washer?
I’m going to send you the whole car in exchange for tons of labor, lol, imagine that
Great video Cole,one ? I have a mk1 998 cooper with hydro supp.How much more experince do i need to do this by my self.
I have not done this on a Hydro setup before but to my knowledge the pivot shaft is largely the same concept and process. I believe the hydro arms have the "two bushes" instead of a bushing and a needle roller. You should be able to use this same guide to accomplish the job.
You need to buy a large tap handle for the reamer
Help. I see your tools listed in the description but I can’t find a ‘drive’ like you used. I search and search and only get results about One Drive, hard drive testing, driver sets, etc. so, where did you get yours?
The reaming tool is no longer showing up from the link. takes me to ebay and its not there. have an updated tool for the link?
Or you could use 18G584 and 18G620 the correct bush and bearing fitting tools :)
Could you ream the bush before installing on a lathe or does it have to be done after installation
I have a question for front top arm repair kit, in what case i need to change it?
Hi I’ve been looking for a reaming tool in the uk as your link doesn’t work over here and I also wanted to know what size I needed.
I’m realizing I have metal inserts… and they’re not coming out easily. Any advice?
Any video of a stub axel removal????
Literally tons of people talking about pressing the stub axel out but nobody posts a video please do it
My stub axle is trashed. I need that video also.
What was the reason for rebuilding...excessive play, age, noise or?
Usually they begin to squeak as the inner tube no longer retains grease. Its sort of a creak/squeak. Its a good idea if you know they are very old too though.
Nice video. Only one question. What kind of rubber seal you use after all. Parts from minispare are very bad. After a few years they crack although the car drives a little.
The seals I use are sold by Seven Mini Parts but I believe they are still wholesale from Minispares. I don't know anyone else who produces them. :-(
Thought this was a Michael Jackson documentary from the title
Both the bush and the gearing need to be below the surface not flush and reaming the bush with swarf going straight in to the bearing isn't a good idea that won't do it any good at all :(
Excellent video Cole I enjoyed it very much, thank you. I'm interested in that reamer, I haven't found a source for it anywhere. Would you mind sharing your source? Thanks in advance.
Hey thanks so much! Link is in the description for the kit on eBay but minispares also sells the tool. 👍🏼
Thanks so much I'll check it out.
@@classicminidiy Very good video. The link to the tool is no longer valid. Do you have another link available ? Thank you.
When your reeming does this not leave bits of bronze at the roller bearing end ? Is there something you can do to prevent this like doing it the other way up ??
Lol question answered just after I wrote it 😂
😎
Thanks, do you think the bush end cound be machined to take a second roller bearing as an upgrade?
You know I am not sure. I think the intention of the bronze bushing is to help keep the grease inside the tube as well. I am sure someone out there has tried it out though!

Check this video out, he sets it up to as bearing both sides, as explained it was a cost saving thing on the mini
😎👍
And the correct reamer 18G588
Hi what size reamer?
Hi, what size reamer?
@@terrencedowling9638 It's a special tool not really possible to use an off the shelf reamer as they have no alignment support
Just did this. That reaming tool from Minispares is complete garbage. 😂
