Title: Is this a bump stop? (BIS help)
Post by: Fiat126Fan87 on October 31, 2011, 01:13:01 PM

Hello, I've read a few threads (old and new) about bump stops. I had an accident in February and when it came to changing my brake shoes and king pins this fell out and I'm not sure what is it? (or where it goes) I've got my MOT in a six weeks so I want to replace it.

I think it's a bump stop, am I right? Does anyone know if they go on the front set of wheels or on all four? Many Thanks

I think "was this a bumpstop?" would have been more appropriate.

There is a thread all about bumpstops a couple below your own, think they cover most of what you need to know.

A bump stop of a horse carriage maybe since it looks like wood to me...
