Rear Camber Links
#13800/13810

Mini Cooper and Cooper S

Install time: one hour

Before You Install, Read These Important Notes

1/ The HSport Camber Links are pre-set to the approximate
stock lengths. Always confirm these lengths to one of your
stock arms before installation, especially of the upper arms.

2/ If you intend to replace the upper arms, you must confirm
that the lengths are the same before installation or your Mini will
not be aligned correctly!

3/ Because the links are not in line with the rear axle line,
adjusting camber angle will change the rear toe slightly.
Remember, significant toe adjustment may be made by
adjusting the control arm at the forward mounting point. The
mount is slotted and can be adjusted when the 3 bolts per side
have been loosened as shown below.

Installation Instructions

Tools Required:

18mm wrench / 18mm socket / one inch extension / 1-1/8 wrench

1/ Raise the rear of the vehicle using a proper lift or jack stands. Always
utilize a level surface and always use the named jack points for the vehicle.

2/ Once the rear of the vehicle is slightly off the ground, begin by removing
either the driver’s side or passenger side lower link. Use a 18mm wrench to
remove the outside bolt and the same 18mm wrench and a 18mm socket with a
1” extension for the inside. For the inside bolt and nut, you must cut or push

the insulation back towards the exhaust in order to free the bolt.

3/ Once you have removed the inside hardware, remove the arm and place it
on a flat surface. Take one of the HSport arms and place it over the stock

piece and line up the sleeves at either end. This ensures that the HSport
arms are in fact at the stock lengths. It will also serve as a BASELINE so
when the HSport arms are reinstalled you can adjust from the stock
BASELINE. Use a 1-1/8” wrench for the jamb nuts.

Use the supplied grease pack to grease the exposed bushing

surface on each arm before installation.
