Yes, the Bentley is the definitive source.

Here are some DIYs; first the subframe must be removed Lone Star Mini Club Forums - Front Swaybar Install , then, drop the gear box Lone Star Mini Club Forums - Clutch, Flywheel, and Quaife Overview . If you don’t have an impact wrench, I recommend a half inch drive long handled flex head ratchet, standard & swivel 15mm sockets, plus a six to eleven inch extension (the 12 O’clock bolt is obscured and an extension is needed to reach it) to remove the gear box bolts from the engine block.
