DAB Motorsport - R56 Trailing Arm Adapter Kit

This small kit of parts allow you to fit R53 spec rear shock absorbers and ABS sensors to the later design cast alloy rear trailing arms found on the R56 MINI - essential when carrying out a trailing arm conversion on your 1st Generation BMW MINI (R50, R52, R53).

The stainless steel spacers fit into the conical seat in the alloy trailing arm and are held in place once the shock absorber is installed.

Uniquely from DAB Motorsport, two plastic bushes are also supplied to reduce the hole diameter in the alloy trailing arm through which the ABS sensor is mounted. R53 ABS sensors are slimmer than those found on the R56, and unless held correctly aligned in the centre of the larger hole in the alloy arms an error can occur, throwing a fault code and rendering your ABS and traction control inoperable. These bushes offer an elegant solution - simply press them in to the arm from the sensor retaining bolt side and the R53 sensor is guaranteed to stay in the right place.

Both the stainless steel spacers and the plastic ABS adaptors have been fully CNC machined to ensure consistent quality and accuracy are maintained.

Made in the United Kingdom.
