This design minimizes control arm stiction and significantly reduces deflection.

• Enhanced Durability: CNC-machined aluminum outer shells with fixed offset bore provide superior strength and resilience.
• Improved Stiffness: Black 95A durometer bushings offer increased stiffness (+60%) over factory rubber, reducing deflection and control arm stiction.
• Optimized Camber: Increases negative camber by 0.75°, improving grip and wheel geometry.
• Tested Performance: Approved by the Mini Challenge in the UK for reliable, grip-focused wheel alignment.
• Advanced Construction: Knurled bore ensures a secure fit and enhanced durability under extreme conditions.

These bushings are ideal for those seeking improved handling and performance for their MINI F55 to F57.

Sway bars transmit cornering forces from the outside wheels to the inside wheels, helping to keep the vehicle flat during cornering. This in turn reduces body roll and improves the driver's cornering confidence. OEM rubber sway bar bushings are designed with comfort in mind, allowing the sway bar to articulate while permitting additional movement, leading to less-than-ideal bar retention and causes unnecessary body roll.

Powerflex polyurethane sway bar bushings are firmer than factory rubber bushings, reducing body roll and keeping sway bars in check. Polyurethane bushings won't slop around like OEM bushings, allowing sway bars to function at their fullest potential.
