R53 Sway Bar Set

Price: $1
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R50, R52, R53
Location (Region): Midwestern
Item Condition: Used

Well... Illinois rears its ugly face again and my sway bars are rusted to hell. Front won't fit in the bushing and the rear straight up broke off. Looking for a sway bar set immediately. Not looking to spend $600. What do y'all have?

Gonna go check out a warehouse with Mini parts one of these next few days. If I remember correctly, he has 2 (can't remember) rear 25mm hollow sways, and it's likely he has some leftover OEM takeoffs. If you're interested, PM me how much you're trying to pay, including shipping from 85308, and I'll keep a look out for you! I can also text pictures to you before I buy to make sure you actually want them, because I can't really afford to just sit on a spare set of sways!

I have a stock rear sway bar off a 2005 mini cooper s (r53), and the stock rear sway bar off a 2008 mini cooper s (r56s). I can measure the diameter of each if you want. I replaced the rear sways on both of my cars with the hotckis competition.

I'm in the north east so I'm not sure what shipping would be though..

I also have stock front and rear sway bars that came off 2002 MCS. Don't need them, so can sell you them for cheap (if still needed)

I have a set of H&R front 25mm and rear 19mm, with urethane bushings, in red. Excellent condition: no rust, no scrape, etc.


Also have a stock pair.


Send me your Zip Code via PM and I'll give price and shipping cost.

Hey y'all. Apparently a lot of people have extra sway bars! I have both sway bars bought now. Much appreciated.
