Hey does anybody know of the justa Cooper crankshaft is the same as the Cooper crankshaft? I know the R53s have forged rods, but the crank change too? I'm having trouble finding an answer. I'm thinking they're the same because the price on RealOEM is the same for both part, but I can't be sure.

 

R50 has crankshaft part 11217508546 or 11217508547 depending on transmission
R53 has crankshaft part 11217546618 or 11217546617 depending on transmission.

 

NO they are totally different. We can get you a brand new crank if you need.
