I don't know if they are legal or not but they are no good for road use because they wear out very quickly, I am talking about them being flogged out before the month is over.
A tie rod end is a much better choice than a rose joint.

can these legally be used on the castor bars (? the bar that connects the lower control arm to the front of the subframe) I have seen them on another vehicle that had modded suspension, but are they for road use for NSW? I have modified my subframe and would like to know because these would make mounting so much easier. thanks |

AFAIK, illegal for road use in all States and Territories. Shouldn't need it for road anyway, very harsh and unforgiving. Race only. |

no need for rose joints... unless you intend on taking a bath in yoghurt with them while you play with your nipples... |

I have adjustable lower arms on my car and they are great. They are bushed ends not rose jointed so wear like std setups You can dial in whatever camber you want. Any serious mini owner will know the alignment from factory and 40 years of body twist is far from good, this why the adjustable setups are so good. I have the front and back adjusted to reduce understeer and give me good power holding limits in corners. Beleave me I didnt do it for looks... |

the rose joints are really rough, good but rough, until you hit a pothole, you need a little give off the track. I have nolothane bushes throughout a fully adjustadle lower arms and castor, and handling isawesome, and I can set the 13x7's up a heap better than stock, and can get heaps of grip. but it's still a rough ride on nolothanes. and don't like going long distances in the mini I will bring my balanced 1275 crank and some strawberry yogurt, where are we going
