NE Florida Shop

Anyone have any suggestions on a Jacksonville, FL shop to do some work on my R53. Have a slow speed knocking on passenger side. Replaced control arm bushing, ball joints, sway bar link, and cv axle on that side (had a tear in the boot). I am not sure if it is the tie rod (possible inner end) or the sway bar bushings.

try contacting the Jax MINI gang

they use a facebook group: Jacksonville Area Mini Motorers

sadly they are a closed group, so you must ask mother may I b4 you can talk to them via facebook

They DO have an old web presence, but it is virtually dead ....
