Hey guys as I said in my last post I am new to the site so i apoligise in advance for all the silly questions i will ask. I have a 1200 ute that I am rebuilding a15 dog leg 5 speed blah blah but what i am wondering about is do you guys know of any replacment bump stops that will bolt into the rear or can be modified to fit. I lowered it today and just sitting there the bumpstop is around 20mm too big. And that is with no suspension movement at all. So the replacement bump stop will need to be tiny. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, David

Yeah the rear bumps. I removed a plate that the bump stop contacts with that bolts to the chassis. (Im hoping that it isnt needed hahaha) that alone gave me an extra 20mm or so. So the bump stop will sit in there with around 2mm clearance but it is goin to hit as soon as it drives over anything bigger than a bug.

shops that deal in minitrucks sell low profile bumpstops. or use a piece of the sidewall of a tyre, wont cushion much but will stop the metal on metal noise
