Bump Stop

The moving parts within your suspension & steering system can move around under compression. This is more likely to happen when you hit a pothole or a bump at speed, and judging by the current state of the UK roads - is a common occurrence. Such knocks to your suspension can impact your car’s performance, not only making your ride more uncomfortable but running the risk of your suspension bottoming out. Depending on where they mount within the suspension system, bump stops are available in a range of different designs. Typically, they are found in line with the piston rods where they add an extra level of absorption when the shock reaches its maximum capacity. When located between the frame and axle, bump stops absorb the impact before the axle collides with the frame.
