I'm buying new struts and springs and already have some Ireland camber plates. I'd like to have a fully assembled set to install vs. having to break down the stock set to steal parts. Anybody have part numbers handy for what else I need? rear tophats and possibly front spring seats? I'm unfamiliar with the assembly on the Cooper S and might not be asking about the right thing, so please feel free to offer info.

And yes, realoem.com ROCKS!

 

quite a few parts then, eh? perhaps I underestimated it a bit...on a Subaru, the rear is a single tophat and the front is two pieces...upper spring perch and tophat.

looks like I'll be taxing my pancake compressor with torquing down the spring compressors. again. I hate suspension installs when it comes to breaking down loaded sets

oh, and thanks for the insta-reply
