Ok put my mini in to get a check up... turns out the dude that i brought the mini from (ausmini member but wont mention who) didnt put the right rockers in.... got a 1330 in it wit like 850 rockers?
when i asked him if they ment to be offset over the springs he said yes... but no they arent... they missin the washers or whatever to line it up properly... so like i need new rockers cuz my old ones are (a) not right ones (b) wearing away

does anyone have any rockers i can purchase? am lookin for 1.5 ratio but 1.3 or anything that will get my mini goin fine again will do?

pls pls pls help... thnx

Where are you located for a start??????? Try Karcraft,minisport,mini spares they wil be able to help you, a set of 1275 standard rockers would get you out of trouble.

C'mon then new guy at mini spares is bound to have a set of pressed steel oval pad rockers. they willl get you going for next to no money at all -then you can start thinking about spending the 350+ dollars on 1.5 ratio rockers. Just avoid the sintered steel rockers off an A+ mini.

The sintered steel of an A+ Do you mean the big chunky squarish ones - Why be wary of them ?????

They're not as strong from memory the ordinary pressed steel ones are OK
