Mini parts names

[bakid124]

Can anyone tell me the name of the diagonal piece of metal holding the rear wheels in place on a mini cooper 2002 1.6?

I am not very car part minded hence the probable simplistic nature of the question.

Thanks for your help

Great way to check on parts and such.

I think you are referring to the rear control arms.

Indeed; that and Penske parts too:
