The pair of OBP rod end-mounted adjustable cups for Mini R55 through R61 and F55 through F59 models replaces the upper shock absorber top mounts on the front axle and adds wheel camber adjustment. Designed specifically to work with threaded coilovers, they allow for fine-tuning the front suspension geometry of a Mini tuned for sporty driving, track use, or competition.
Adjustable wheel camber allows you to modify the angle of the front wheels to adapt the geometry to ride height, tires, and the desired handling characteristics. This adjustment thus offers an additional way to optimize grip, cornering stability, and front-end handling.
These ball-joint shock absorber top mounts are equipped with PTFE-coated carbon steel rod ends. This design ensures a more direct connection at the shock absorber’s upper mounting point and minimizes unwanted movement compared to a cup using more flexible components.
OBP cups are machined from solid 6061 aluminum and then anodized. Their rod ends have a 17 mm bore. Reducing inserts are available separately when adaptation to the shock absorber rod diameter is necessary.
Sold in pairs to equip the entire front axle, these OBP adjustable rod end cups are compatible with the Mini F55, F56, F57, F58, F59, R55, R56, R57, R58, R59, R60, and R61. They come with 6 M8 mounting bolts.
Installation tip: Before placing your order, be sure to carefully check the sizes of your mounting using the technical diagram, particularly the diameter and length of the shock absorber rod, as well as the various measurements required for installing the top mounts.
