Cross Coilovers
Cross Coilovers 
Cross Competition Series coil overs are among the best in the industry and have some features that make them well worth the investment, especially for those that reqularly race and track their MINI. They feature lightweight design with a 15 way dampening adjustable monotube damper, built in camber plates, cool bend linear rate springs, adjustable lower mount (awesome!!), helper springs, and more!

Built In Front Camber Plates:
Adjustable camber plate also included on the front applications with Macpherson Strut suspension systems that MINI utilizes. This allows for a higher performance stance and adjustability as well offers an integrated tuning solution for endless adjustment of camber at the track or your favorite suspension shop. The adjustable camber plate will give enough camber to allow handling characteristics and better feedback and response to the driver.

COOL BEND SPRINGS 8kg front 7 kg rear = about 450# ft 393# rear
Linear rate spring manufactured using chrome silicon metal alloy with a cool bend process to prevent sag or loss of spring rate. This allows for a direct feel with the vehicle and driver. In addition, CROSS is one of the only companies that utilizes the linear spring for better handling.

HIGH STRENGTH INVERTED MONOTUBE
This unique design features a 40mm piston with a one of a kind bumpstop design incased inside the damper. The walls of the shock casing is lined with grease so that the absorber body can easily move along inside the shock casing body. There are also two thrust bearings to protect the absorber body. The inverted monotube design also allows for a stronger support for the strut type suspension.

HELPER SPRING
All CROSS coilovers come with helper springs to aid in streetability of the coilovers. Also allows for a wider range of higher spring rates and for a smoother ride. In addition, this prevents any type of bump steer. This can give a progressive feel of the suspension without dealing with progressive springs. This is one of the unique designs that CROSS can offer its drivers.

ADJUSTABLE DAMPENING
Available for all applications with 15 ways adjustability. With this feature, you are able to tune your suspension dampening up to your spec. Adjustability is easy with inverted monotube on the BOTTOM of the damper (for the rear!!) and monotube dampers on the top. An adjustable knob (included with the kit) makes adjustability easy with solid clicks. Adjustability can be softer for street use and brought up for track use. CROSS Competition Series Coilovers have a broad range of adjustability to suit any type of driver looking to upgrade their high performance MINI.

DURABLE MONOTUBE DESIGN
Each CROSS damper includes a high pressure, nitrogen gas filled, monotube designed damper, with special stable viscosity index oil that will not be affected by wide temperature changes. Therefore, heat does not affect the performance capabilities which is the one main performance advantages for a monotube damper. Also, 40mm and 45mm pistons are used for wider performance capabilities. Monotube dampers also allow for easier customization and rebuilding of the damper for longer use.

ADJUSTABLE LOWER BRACKET
More durable than factory brackets with adjustable ride height ranging from 0.5" to 2.5" drop without sacrificing the suspension travel. No other European performance coilover company offers this feature. The independent height drop feature also prevents the noisey annoyance of hitting the bump stop. This also extends the performance capabilities as you can get full shock travel. Made of either high grade steel or high strength aluminum.



Fits these MINI models:

all current*, ** EXCEPT clubman (until we define new spring rates based on chassis weight, etc.)

* On 2007+ Hatchbacks, Clubmans and 09+ Convertibles you will need to purchase the lower Shock Bushing kit that will allow aftermarket shocks to properly seat on the lower swing arm/trailing arm. They are in our 07+ Suspension section.

** On 2007+ Hatchbacks, Clubmans and 09+ Convertibles the front sway bar end links will most likely need to be replaced with adjustable arms so the control arm does not interfere with the front sway bar while the suspension is fully compressed. I have found that using REAR Alta Adjustable Sway Bar End Links on the FRONT allows for as much adjustment as needed.

IMPORTANT: The Cross Coilovers for the MINI ship WITH FREE front sway bar end links!!!

This applies to nearly ALL Gen 1 coilovers sets when used on 2007+ Hatchbacks and other Gen 2 cars.
