* Direct transmission of suspension movements to the sway bar
* Can eliminate sway bar pre-loading to compensate for poorly manufactured sway bars
Fits the following models:
2002-2006 R50 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Hatchbacks
2005-2008 R52 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Convertibles
2007-2013 R56 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Hardtop
2008-2014 R55 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Clubman
2009-2015 R57 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Convertible
Stock Drop Links are 11.75" in length. These links are adjustable from about 11.75" up to 13.0".
Everything starts with the material – after all, it is the foundation of the part. NM Engineering did not skimp here as these links are precision CNC machined from 7075-T6 aluminum here in California. Because this is a high-stress part, 7075 was chosen because it has the same tensile strength as steel, yet is much lighter. Just to compare, 7075-T6 has almost twice the tensile strength compared to 6061-T6.
Another benefit afforded by 7075-T6 is it allowed NM Engineering to machine or turn-down the centers of the links to save weight and stay clear to other elements such as brake lines and brake pad sensor wires.
Another benefit afforded by 7075-T6 is it allowed NM Engineering to machine or turn-down the centers of the links to save weight and stay clear of the brake lines and brake pad sensor wires. To give you an idea how thin the link is, the centers of the NM links are thinner than a standard AA battery.
NM’s links also utilize precision CNC machined stainless steel ball-joint spacers as stainless steel is stronger and more durable than 6061 aluminum alloy. To maximize adjustability, NM chose a special thin jam nut which allow an additional ¼" of adjustment compared to others being sold in the market.
The length of the links are similar to the OE link (with ample of adjustment).
By the way, a quick note on the materials we use…whether it is 6061-T6 or 7075-T6, all grade materials we purchase are certified. We will NEVER buy uncertified scrap or overrun materials from metal/alloy vendors. Re-use the Stock Nuts with these Drop Links.
Material Strength Data:
6061-T6: Tensile 45 ksi, Yield 40 ksi
7075-T6: Tensile 83 ksi, Yield 73 ksi
4130 Chromoly: Tensile 80 ksi, Yield 56 ksi
NM Engineering’s Front Adjustable Sway Bar Links will not yield like their OE counterparts making sure that all suspension movements are transmitted to the sway bar for maximum performance. This part is a must especially on lowered vehicles or cars equipped with aftermarket sway bars.
For the Rear Adjustable Drop Links, see G2NMS21012.
