Hi and welcome

Quite a few Morris 8 owners on this forum Very Happy , what do need to know? I'm sure one of us will be able to help.

You need a 5/8 " whitworth box spanner to remove the master cylinder (sockets are not deep enough) The cylinder is bolted through the chassis.

hey thanks ukdave, been busy last couple of days so havnt touched her, but pulled out the back seat today because i've read that the timber normally rots under the rear window....found theres quite a lot of timber thats nearly all gone however thank god the metals sound. I was wondering if anyone with a S1 two door would be able to pull the back seat out and take a photo of the timber work so i can get a decent look at what it should look like??
Cheers guys!! Very Happy

Hello Mat,
I have just seen your post, do you still want some pictures? If so which bits in particular?
