Ah okay. Have I put the wrong arm that it attaches to on ? Or is it just a case of flipping it over ?

Thanks
Andrew.

flip the track rod end over with the threaded end pointing UP, the hub should fit correctly then.

I buy and sell a lot of things on eBay, I don't have a job and all my parents paid for was the actual car in the first place which was £450.
I also do IPhone conversions ( Changing them from black to any colour people want )
So yeah I make enough to fund my Mini and my life style.

Also there should be an exciting update coming along tonight if all goes to plan :D

Thanks very much, Don't know if it drove sweet, i didn't go over 2 MPH Ahaha.
The car cover was £15 from eBay. It's only a cheapy one so don't expect much if you do get one.
Andrew.
