Yesterday we fitted a set of new front to rear suspension pipes to this early Austin 1100 Mk2 Automatic. One of the pipes had corroded through and the suspension was down to the bump stops on one side, as replacing the pipes properly is a major operation the customer opted to have both pipes replaced. A considerable amount of work was involved, the rear subframe has to be removed, the front subframe complete with engine has to be lowered by a considerable amount and the steering rack dismounted too to get the pipes behind it. The new pipes were supplied by David at Longbridge Motor Spares and they formed and fitted well
