Dear William....thank you very much for your feedback...delighted to know that you are followed all over the world....
Sorry, i should have made the effort to write you in english first.
For my part, it s been 4 years since i wanted to start the restoration of my mini but....
I started in february 2020 and my main problem is the supply of parts wich come from France, England , Belgium and even from the United States...
I tale small steps but i m going....especially thanks to your vidéos.
Thanks Alain.
Thanks again....not thanks Alain 🤭🤭
@@saidkharbouche6381 ha ha I did wonder
Great video William. Used this to rebuild my upper arm. Thanks 👍👍
Cheers philip, thanks for the comment
This help me a lot, what’s that long bar you put on the subframe during the time lapse?
You're welcome, glad it helped.
Good video Will .Always prefer a bit threaded bar and a couple fat washers to put the bearings back in ...Im probably bit heavy handed with the old knocking stick ..😁
Yeah that will work also I've always used a hammer for these sort of jobs and find it easy to do. Thanks for the kind message 😀
@@WilliamMurfitt keep up the good work mate
William, Top video and good clear info on stripping & repairing parts, I think you will find you get a lot more views over time on the videos
as viewers type in a specific title or problem to see how it‘s done Top job, Cheers Dave
Thanks Dave much appreciated. I'm glad I have this video up. It's up there forever now to help others
good video matey, this will come in handy later when i get to that area of my car.
No worries mate. Thanks for watching
Do you sell that tool on the William Murfitt online shop?
Ha ha no, would love to have a shop one day
Great video will very informative as always cheers mate
Cheers mate and congratulations on 500 subscribers!
@@WilliamMurfitt awwwww thanks pal!
Great vid good content and looks like you have a good action on that slide hammer 😂😂😂👍👍
Plenty of practice pal 😉 cheers mark
Great video. Do you have to undo the large shaft bolt at the front, just the small screws? Will the shaft slide out sufficiently to remove the arm without taking the large bolt out? I just can't seem to get to it. You don't show how you removed it.
Hi mate I did a video of the stripdown here: I'm not 100% sure on what you mean here hopefully it will help answer a few questions? th-cam.com/video/qld_FehE5gY/w-d-xo.html
@@WilliamMurfitt Thanks so much. I got the lower arm out with your brilliant video. The most difficult thing I see now is being able to insert the inside 7/16th screw that holds the plate back in. It was easy to get out but getting it in, I cannot reach it with my fingers enough to screw it in. I have a Cooper S with a Servo in the way. Do you think that has to come out?
On the radiator side I think I may be able to insert it with a long socket extension from the front.
@@jeremydup6863 you can do extensions or bend the inner wing slightly to be able to get your hand in to get it started. Not ideal but it has some movement in there to help
@@WilliamMurfitt Cheers William, I will give it a try. Thanks again for yor great videos
@@jeremydup6863 not a problem I really enjoy making them and hearing people enjoy them is a double bonus
Great video,good information!
Nice work mate! 👍
Thank you very much, hopefully its of use to some of the viewers to help them save some pennies.
Really nice video, i missed, did you put some grease on the bearing and shaft when mounting?
Yes I greased everything but I left this tip the end to grease everything in one sitting
A trick: you can watch series on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies lately.
@Alijah Curtis yup, I've been watching on flixzone} for since november myself :D
@Alijah Curtis Yea, I've been watching on Flixzone} for since december myself :)
Use a heat gun on the rubber cup to soften it then it will pop out.
That's a great tip, I'll be adding a heat gun to my Christmas list this year I think
This is something that I was eagerly looking 3-4 months ago! :)
Sorry pal, hope its going to help as a reference for future builds / repairs
Well a slide hammer is missing still from my tool inventory
@@gaaldonat it is a great addition, i use this for the front upper arms & the rear radius arm roller bearings.
hard to see all the holes and where are pointing on the subframe coz its all black... but still get the picture :)
Sorry, I had a mishap with my lights whereby I knocked them and they smashed!
As always a great informative video Will. Another must watch video for any Mini DIY'er new to repairs. Suprised you havent exceed 1000 subs yet, won't be long with such good info m8y.
All the best to you.
Thank you so much, it's hard to crack this TH-cam lark but I'm loving the adventure and getting the content out there. 'If you build it they will come' 😀
@@WilliamMurfitt Rome wasn't built in a day! (aparently?) Your target audience is quite specific but the detail you give lifts your channel out above most others, The numbers will climb as more peeps discover the channel and the great resource your videos can be.
@@CoolDog000 that really means alot. Thank you
Hey mate were did you get the slide hammer from?
I bought it from Ebay. It was less than £20 and pretty good quality it does the job at least
@@WilliamMurfitt thanks mate
Found it
Hi William, a good video. I'm refurbishing my upper suspension arms now and watched your video which was very helpful. My needle roller bearings refused to budge using the slide hammer. So I had to find alternative methods. I made a video while I was at it to show how I finally got around the problem. th-cam.com/video/ZtLS1emAsio/w-d-xo.html
Great job. Nice to see you got there in the end
