Shameless plug for jlm - MINI Cooper Forum

If anyone needs replacement front shock top mounts (because, for example, your stiff new springs or coilovers have cracked the rubber surround on the standard items like happened to me) contact jlm before you replace 'em with the standard BMW bit.

John sent me a set of replacement top mounts that are streets ahead of the standard items - beautifully made, better inherent design and with the added advantage of a more positive top locating point for the strut - for those of you seeking to eliminate that BMW trait of overly-compliant bushings.

Just another item in the 'better bits' aftermarket arsenal. Thanks again, John.

That picture's not fair--everybody knows flourescent lights put on 20lbs.

We're all indebted to John.
I think when his über motor is done we'll owe him even more.

Thanks

Here's a candid shot of JLM before a track event. Note the trick Milano's, suicide door mod and R compounds and special rear camber:

Right you are, if ever there was a place for a Fear This sticker it would have to be on
