Rear axle bump stops?

Post by Roach » 26th July 2016 - 7:32pm

Hi,

I'm on the hunt for some new rear axle bump stops, but I'm not sure the 1.... Yes 1 I've removed is actually correct??

My car is pretty lowered so I don't know if I'd want the standard ones anyway? How do the standard ones mount? Can you cut them down?

Cheers!

No, that's not an original.
They are normally a bit taller than that. They push on to a "mushroom" feature formed on the bracket.

Ah, cheers for that.

I have no mushroom, I have a hole instead. :lol:

I'll look for a universal pair to screw in, better than nowt I guess. :)
