Hi Neil, Thanks for your message and your reply. You are right, it is been pretty quiet around here lately! I do not have Facebook myself, but I will keep updating my thread. I have been looking for more posts or guides about replacing the crossmember, but I have not found any really detailed tutorials so far. I will try to get in touch with one or two members who seem to have already done this repair. I have also noticed that quite a few pictures do not show up in some threads or tutorials. Maybe it is something on my side, a setting issue, or just missing images? It is a bit of a shame, as the photos really help to follow the discussions. In the meantime, I am still making progress with my restoration. I was lucky to find an original Mk1 crossmember from a friend, a genuine period part! So that is already a good step forward. If you know of anyone who has already carried out this repair and who might be open to a quick chat or sharing some advice, I would really appreciate the contact. Thanks everyone, Have a great day and talk soon |

Firstly Guillaume, welcome to the forum and Mini Marcos Ownership. The Forum is a great source of information direction on all things related to our favourite little car. The cross member replacement is a common job and is well documented here, just use the search function and search crossmember. If you are on Facebook there is another group there which may get you quicker response, it can get quiet on here. https://www.facebook.com/groups/153364494758147 Bast of luck Neil |

I might consider replacing the entire crossmember itself rather than trying to save it Has anyone done it before? Any advice or suggestions welcome |
