Not exactly the BMC engineers' best design effort, removal of this stud requires slackening off the plate under the brake and clutch master cylinders, with all the difficulty involved in doing so (think clevis pins - or think 'not for me' if you've never done it). Far better to use the post-1970 bolt (BH605151) and spacer (21A1108) in place of the stud.

The bonded one-piece bushes first fitted in 1998 replaced both the previous 'top hat' bushes and their spacers. They can be fitted to pre-1998 steady bars.
Alternatively, post-1998 cars can be retro-fitted with 'top hat' bushes and spacers. Whichever, Somerford Mini's recommendation for longevity is to fit the USBK001 steady bar heavy duty bush kit shown later in this section to all models!

848cc 1973-78
998cc 1973-76
1098cc 1975-76
1275cc 1972-78
Introduced at the same time as the rod change gearbox, the lower RH rear steady bar was intended to replace the engine bracing so well effected by the previous gearbox's remote change housing. Since it secures at one end to existing studs and nuts on the power unit and on the other end to a simple hole in the subframe rear leg, it can be easily installed on the majority of Minis, if desired.

Lower Left Hand Rear Steady Bar
998 and 1098cc 1976-78
For 1976 it was decided to replace the lower RH rear steady bar on 998 and 1098cc models by fitting a similar set up on the LH side of the engine, again anchoring to the subframe leg. The lower LH rear steady bar assembly can also be easily fitted to many Minis, if required. The factory did not fit it to 848cc or 1275cc Minis - both soldiered on with the RH bar until the next design appeared in 1978.

Lower Right Hand Front Steady Bar
All Models 1978 On
The final variant of the lower steady bar, running forwards from the gearbox to the front crossmember of the subframe, appeared in 1978 and was fitted to all Minis
up to 2000. It replaced both previous, rearward facing, versions. When the 1275cc engine was reintroduced in the Mini in 1990, the engine position was moved
slightly so the lower RH steady bar for all 1990s 1275cc Minis is slightly shorter (by 1/2") than for all other models. Incidentally, looking further back in this section
of the catalogue, that's why 1990s 1275cc Minis had the longer (previously automatic models only) upper steady bar.
The good news for owners who already have one on their car is that the lower RH front steady bar works better than the previous two rearward facing designs; the
bad news is that if you have a pre-1978 car, unless you also have a post-1978 front subframe with the necessary bracketry welded to it, it wouldn't be easy to fit one.

Heavy Duty Steady Bar Bushes
Soft or disintegrated steady bar bushes are one of the most frequent frustrations to Mini owners. Immediately identified by a harsh knock from the dash panel area
upon sharp throttle movements, loose bushes also result in roughness in acceleration when the engine moves unduly and 'snatches' on the throttle cable - a symptom
which then causes further bush deterioration.

The best solution is to fit harder, more resiliant bushes than the standard items - but beware! Use of very hard or solid bushes may be acceptable for out-and-out
performance Minis, but they do result in a loss of refinement in a road-going car and can even cause premature failure of steady bar securing bolts or brackets unless
meticulous fitting and maintenance is carried out. Somerford Mini recommends the use of their heavy duty harder (but not too hard) rubber bushes for all road-going
Minis, providing greatly improved resiliance to wear and tear without significantly increasing stress on the steady bar and its fixings. The bushes utilise standard
spacer tubes and bolts.

The Somerford Mini heavy duty steady bar bushes are available in an upper steady bar bush kit (four bushes and two bush spacers), or as individual bushes for fitment to either upper or lower steady bars. Note that they are not suitable for fitment to the engine end of original 1959-62 upper steady bars.

146	CRC5329HD	BUSH, steady bar, harder rubber	1	For upper or lower steady bars. Included in USBK001 kit.

Broken Steady Kits
What's even more frustrating than worn out upper steady bar bushes is one or both of the mounting bolts shearing off in the cylinder block when you try to replace
them! Sometimes one or both block bolts have even been sheared beforehand by the shock caused by ineffective bushes. Either way, a classic situation of a five
minute job turning into a major exercise can result if engineering workshop techniques or tools such as 'easy-outs' are required to remove the remainder of the bolt(s).
Somerford Mini can supply an easy-to-fit mounting bracket assembly which bypasses the use of the offending engine block bolt holes.

The four broken steady kits provide alternatives for use on cylinder blocks where either the longer bolt only or both bolts have broken, on engines without or with
a crankcase breather on the flywheel housing (the latter for 1275cc engines from 1969 on). Each kit includes an adaptor bracket, plus the bar retaining bracket
with appropriate bolts and washers.

Upper Left Hand Engine Steady Bar Kits
For the harder driver! Really only recommended for very fast road or competition use, these steady bar kits mount at the opposite end of the engine to supplement
the steady bar in the standard RH mounting position. Attachment methods vary in detail, since the Mini was never originally designed to take them, but they all
share the principle of bracing the engine between the thermostat housing and the left hand end of the dash crossmember.

Kits include steady bar, bushes, bush fixings, attachment brackets and extra bracket fixings (as appropriate).
