Under acceleration, the MINI will have more front end traction and be more predictable in corners. Wheel hop will disappear and the MINI will feel more stable. Under braking, steering feedback issues and wandering are eliminated. The OEM MINI bushings are made of soft rubber to reduce noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), and make the ride more comfortable, in turn this creates a large amount of wheel movement under braking, accelerating and cornering. The more rigid design of the PSRS eliminates suspension misalignment making the MINI handle consistently and predictably during all driving conditions, including extreme driving. By offsetting the center pivot of the ALTA PSRS, the installer can add between 0 to 1.5 degrees of caster to the front suspension, giving better directional stability and reducing tendency to wander. The special urethane bushings will outlast the OEM bushings for years of performance driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUrethane Bushing Replacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stiffer polyurethane bushings for front control arms' rear mounts to reduce slop and improve precision.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnhanced Traction \u0026amp;
