Mini Mania has a diverse selection of must-have suspension parts for your Classic Mini (1959-2000) including front suspension and rear suspension accessories and parts including hydrolasic, wheel bearings, suspension bushings, suspension ball joints, suspension shocks, cv joints and suspension drive flange.
Mini handling is like a bottle of wine? It all depends on who is driving (or drinking the wine)! Experience, technique, expectations all result in a different formula for success.
SPAX has been making suspension for the past 50 years, we are one of the best known manufacturers in the world. Named after a Somerset village called Spaxton and was the first company to produce on-car adjustable dampers.
Frequently Asked Questions How do I adjust my rear telescopic dampers? There is a knob or a screwdriver adjustment at the bottom of each damper. If you turn the adjuster fully anticlockwise it will be on the lowest setting, then turn the adjuster clockwise - On our newer dampers there will be 28 points of adjustment and on our older dampers 14. You need to count the clicks, as once the maximum damping has been reached, the adjuster will keep turning. Always adjust both dampers an equal number of clicks.
Technical lowdown on Classic Mini dampers (shock absorbers), what to look for and what to buy. Stock version & fully adjustable race shocks are better bought with understanding the technical background.
