Bump Stops

Post by travelman » Sun Jun 28, 2015 3:15 pm

Has anyone got a standard pair of rear bump stops in good condition to fit a 1991 ES.

I'm also after some.

Scandix don't even sell them any more :(

I am speaking with someone about making polybushes for pretty much every bush on the car.
He seems confident that he can make the rear bump stops too.

I'll update if/when I hear anything. :)

Thank you Hebruins for taking the time to look for them. I have ordered two immediately.
The website has an English version as well,so no problem there,but paying by card was more tricky as it only comes up in Dutch.However,I must have guessed the right headings as I got a confirmation of my order in English.
Only one pair left now! One lucky bastard now happy.

That's 2 items, not two pairs.

I haven't got the pennies at the moment, but will check again when I've been paid.

Thanks for posting the link :)

Bump Stops(2) arrived from the Netherlands today via UPS, so pretty good service.
Two left in stock- unless anybody else has jumped ion to get them- so can recommend.

Bump stops fitted and ok. I took it in to be done and glad I did as the cups that hold the springs in place had rotted as well. Fortunately my guy was able to fabricate and fit some new ones-all at great expense of course. Still, that is 480's for you-full of expensive surprises. Nice to be back on the road though without the clonks and rattles from the rear.

Not had a chance yet, Dai.

Hope to get on them over the next couple of weeks :)
