NM Engineering Front Tie Bar F55 F56 F57

NM Engineering Front Tie Bar F55 F56 F57 MINI Cooper and Cooper S. Commonly also referred to as a front strut tower brace or strut brace. This ties the front strut towers together to stiffen the chassis. The mounting bases and tube ends are machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminum billets, and not some cheap welded together sheet metal pieces. The bar is formed utilizing a 1" round 6061-T6 aluminum tubing with 1/4" thick wall for the perfect balance between stiffness and weight. While others use a single bolt design we use two bolts to solidly secure the tube end to the mounting base. The single bolt mounting still allows the assembly to pivot and skewed, rendering them ineffective against chassis flex, no matter how tight you cinch the bar end bolt. Sold as a kit including strut tie bar and brackets for one F55 F56 F57 MINI Cooper or Cooper S.
