Re: Start of rear repair first timer

Yes, well done for taking it on, the Morris Minor design lends itself to the DIY owner/restorer, the consequence being satisfaction and financial saving. My projects wouldn’t have happened if I had to pay someone.

Re: LCV Register

The MMOC forum allows non members to access the forum, this is handy because many non members are people that may once have owned a Minor and now wish to sell/donate spares they may have collected in the past.

Re: What wheel bearings are these?

The bearing numbers are the key, not easy while in package though. Useable, don’t see why not, even if you had to clean and repack with fresh grease, certainly they won’t be worn.

Re: Brake fluid

I changed to silicone a long while ago, again took the advise from reliable sources to renew rubbers and not mix. So far all is well.
