New Alta PSRS replacement for the OEM front control arm bushings. $125 + $13 shipping to lower 48 states. I bought it a while back from Alta and my mechanic said it was a bit aggressive for my suspension set up. The PSRS have sat inside their original box in my office ever since. I know there is a Mini out there waiting for these to be installed. PM me if interested. Thanks for looking.
Read below for info from the Alta website about the part.

What Is The ALTA PSRS

The ALTA PSRS replaces the front control arm's rear rubber bushings with solid spherical bearings. The solid design of the PSRS will not allow any wheel deflection under heavy braking or acceleration, in turn your MINI's suspension geometry will not change making the vehicle handling more consistent and predictable. Under acceleration your MINI will have more front end traction and be more predictable in corners. Wheel hop will disappear and your MINI will feel more stable. Under braking steering feedback issues and wandering are eliminated!

OEM Bushings vs The PSRS

The OEM MINI bushings are made of soft rubber to reduce noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), and make the ride more comfortable, in turn this creates a large amount of wheel movement under braking, accelerating and cornering. For the performance minded MINI owner, this creates unwanted movement, suspension mis-alignment, and changes in handling characteristics of your MINI. The solid design of the PSRS eliminates suspension misalignment making your MINI handle consistently and predictably during all driving conditions including extreme driving.
