Known by various names such as guide mount or front strut support, this component plays a pivotal role in maintaining the tranquility of your vehicle's suspension. Over time, wear and tear can cause suspension squeaks or unsettling clunking noises, emphasizing the importance of this part for a peaceful driving experience.

What sets this guide mount apart is its versatility, as it can be utilized on both the passenger and driver sides of your vehicle. When the spring and strut are compressed and locked, exposing the end thread of the strut, this guide mount securely attaches to the top of the strut, ensuring a reliable and noise-free suspension system.

For the best results, professional installation is highly recommended, guaranteeing not only a quieter ride but also the long-lasting performance of this critical component.

If you are concerned about strut tower mushrooming and looking for improved handling, the M7 Strut Tower Brace (STB) is the solution. This is the ONLY strut tower brace on the market that features anti-mushrooming technology.

Repeatedly, we've heard the same complaint: strut towers mushroom after heavy impacts from shocks and low aspect ratio tires. Initially, the shock towers take on a barely visible convex shape, but if compared to the original sheet metal, you'll find the horizontal plane has moved as much as 3/8" upwards, making alignment nearly impossible.

This issue often shows up as a slight pull to the left or right, depending on which strut tower is affected. The M7 Strut Tower Brace's end mounting plates solve this problem by sandwiching the sheet metal and shock top plate, creating a reinforced surface that won't bend, even during hard impacts.

The M7 STB features 1/2" (13mm) thick end plates that add extra strength to the strut towers, preventing mushrooming and potentially costly repairs. The cross brace significantly improves handling by adding torsional stiffness to the front body structure, helping keep your tires planted and pointed in the direction you want to go, especially during hard turns. Machined from billet aluminum and matte black powder coated, the M7 Strut Tower Brace boasts a durable black finish that looks great and won't chip or oxidize.

We have customers who won't drive their new MINI off the lot without one and dealers that sell every new MINI with either the M7 Strut Reinforcement Plates or the M7 Strut Tower Brace.

Concerned about clearance? No worries. The M7 STB profile is designed to clear both stock and aftermarket cold air intakes and ECUs. Its modular design allows easy access to the oil filter or any other accessories that might normally be blocked and require removal of the entire brace.

Installation is a snap (often taking less than 20 minutes)! No need for new nuts—the brace uses the three stock nuts on each side. Installation instructions are available online by clicking the "INSTALLATION" link on this page.

The M7 Strut Reinforcement Plates and the M7 Strut Tower Brace are two separate products that address strut tower mushrooming (you only need one or the other).

If your MINI is mainly a daily driver, the M7 Strut Reinforcement Plates are sufficient. If you have performance driving in mind, the M7 Strut Tower Brace is what you're looking for!

Please note:

• You cannot buy the SRPs and attach the cross-bar at a later time.
• The brace does not directly fit on the R50 and R52 Non-"S" Cooper due to limited hood clearance of the non-supercharged cars. It will fit but may push up on the hood slightly, requiring molding or cutting of the hood insulation after installation.
• Trimming of the underhood insulation material may be required to fully clear this brace. This is a very tight space.

Is your Mini experiencing a noticeable bump or clunk in the steering when turning sharply or driving over bumps? The culprit is likely the outer ball joint. Replace it with this essential kit to restore tight steering and suspension, reducing tire cupping. Specifically critical for Minis, this kit includes a bracket with the ball joint, along with a washer nut that requires replacement with a molded lock washer.

• Restores tight steering and suspension feel
• Reduces tire cupping
• Critical replacement point for Mini vehicles
