    WoW, am so glad you are around making parts like these. Save people a lot of time trying to fabricate their own, in only hopes it might work.

    I am having issues, trying to picture this installed. Where does the Heim joint actually screw into on the trailing arm ?

    Also, gathered from what you have said in the thread about your CAs, you would only suggest this to be used w/ your CAs as well ?

    Would this be something you would even consider to be used on the street ?

    What about use with R56/GP trailing arms?

    Edit: I just got to my shop. They won't work as pictured. Different attachment on the aluminum trailing arm. Guess you'll have to do a V.2, Greg.

    KC, thanks. These can be used with any control arms.
    As far as street use? I can really only say that they are built for racing and sold for racing with the understanding that these are "racing parts".

    Greg, YES, I will be designing a similar part for the later models. We will talk.

    Pre 2006 Mini R50 and R53?

    Was there a change on the 06 R50/53 from 05? Besides the GP that used the 07+ trailing arms.

    Nathan,
    Correct Nathan. Yes, it was just the GP I guess that changed the design during the R50-R53. I was thinking that there were some steal arms that also went with the new style bushing design.
    I have no problem stating that I get a little lost on what car has what design. ;)
