Product Details
Owners of the 2008-2014 Mini Cooper Clubman, S Clubman (R56/F56) can fit the Whiteline Heavy Duty 26mm Front Sway Bar. Part number BMF73. Whiteline's note for this fit: Suits R55/R56/R57 models. It goes on the front of the vehicle. The listing names the S Clubman trim. You receive 1 sway bar and 2 bushings.
Roll control starts at the front of most cars, where the steering tires do the hardest work. A stiffer front bar limits the lean of the body, keeps the outside front tire flatter on the road, and gives a more immediate response to steering. The bar is adjustable, so the stiffness can be changed to suit the car and the road.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 3 hours of work listed. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing, and Front Strut Tower Brace Quick Release Kit for the Cooper Clubman.
Features
- Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
- Lateral locks: Lateral locks keep the bar centered under cornering load.
- Bushing material: The bushing material is polyurethane, a firmer choice than rubber.
- Roll stiffness: A larger diameter bar has more torsional resistance, which raises overall roll stiffness.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Finish: Powder coating covers the metal for protection against chips and rust.
