Hello!
I bought these from a NAM member earlier this year. Turns out I have the same bars already installed in my car. These bars are in great condition(refer pictures for cosmetic blemishes). Local pick up preferred. Please PM to make arrangements.

Thank you for your time!

I didn’t think there were JCW specific sway bars. Aren’t those just the sport plus ones?

 

Apparently there was a variation (probably in the fJCW models) but just on the rear. Shows 22.5mm front for base Cooper, 24mm front for Cooper w/ sport suspension as well as the S and JCW. The rear was 16mm standard on the Cooper, 17mm on Cooper with sport susp. and standard on the S. There was a 18.5mm version listed as JCW specific.

But based on the pics and part numbers, if I search the part number on the rear bar pic it shows up as the 17mm stock bar on ECS.

 

Hi,
I am not aware of that.
This is the listing that I purchased it from
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...sway-bars.html
I am just reposting it because I don't need them.

Thanks

 

Those swaybars were standard equipment (Sport Suspension Plus) on the Cooper S. The JCW Suspension Kit for the Cooper S only included shocks and springs.

You can check the part numbers on RealOEM.

 

Yeah. The rear SB was the only possible difference and based on the part number in your pic (33556754819) that is the standard S bar (17mm). Sorry mate but @Cut7 falsely advertised his bars in that listing. I personally have never seen a stock 18.5mm JCW bar in person and MiniMania is the only site that references the possible difference but I imagine if that unicorn exists it would have been only found on factory JCW cars and not dealer installed kits.
****Actually looking on RealOEM site I can't find anything more that 17mm stock. Even on the GP1:

Hi, Thank you for pointing this out. I am going to update this listing.

 

Hello everyone!,
I apologize for the misinformation in this post. The NAM member @cut7 that I bought these from had falsely advertised these and I was just using the information that was provided in his post. I can't seem to find a way to edit the post(please let me know if there is a way to do that). But from what I see in the replies these are standard equipment (Sport Suspension Plus) on the Cooper S and I am willing to sell it to anyone who is making an offer.

Thank you for your time and thank you @Cincy_jro @MINIAC for pointing out the error in the post.

Thank you
