Don't run around without bumpstops. You risk damaging the damper rod on the shock if it takes a big hit.
Shorter ones (coupe) are better than none at all but they are designed to be used with a lowered car which may have a shorter shock damper rod.
I got a set of these of ebay for £5 with free delivery, don't know what they are supposed to fit but I thought I would give them a go.
They are just a tad shorter than the originals, but they don't have a solid bit at the top and the end is much softer.
Fitting was simple, didn't have to undo anything, squeeze thought spring smear a bit of petroleum jelly on nipple and in the hole D) and with the help of a big blunt screw driver they were in
With the car back on the ground clearance is about the same, Just hope with them being a bit softer their will be less crash and bang.
I’m in a pickle chaps just destroyed one of my new bump stops trying to fit
I’ve greased and tried in vain with all sorts of tools but still can’t get the nipple in!!! Advice please
As usual I took the long route.. and managed to destroy one!? honestly .. it’s a good job I had another set to hand!
Thanks chaps ? I’ve ordered that silicone too my garage is like euro carparts ?
