linearentropy Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Does anyone know of a NZ company that supplied bump stop spacers, or anything polyurethane that looks somewhat like the image below. Ideally for BC coilovers but I should be able to make any other brand equivalents fit. I've been hunting around for a while and I can't seem to find anywhere that can supply them. I've been getting a fair amount of rubbing during hard cornering in on of my MX5s, particularly downhill corners. I've cut away everything I can think of that would be causing this, so the only solution i see is shortening the bump travel. Obviously raising the car isn't an option.

cletus Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Autolign or George stocks might have something, but when doing similar things I've found a hard plastic works best as it doesn't compress, nolathane or similar stuff can still compress . Have had a couple of people use skateboard wheels for similar problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linearentropy Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 George stocks reckon they don't stock anything similar. Autolign says the same - but will made some for a vast expense. Best idea I've been given is attacking a K-Mart white chopping board with a 44mm hole saw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKer Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 might have some 10mm stuff lying about still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvmyvl Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 If you are in Auckland, go see LEP Engineering plastics in onehunga.. they cast polyurethane in sheets from 3mm thick.. will have a heap of off cuts on the shelf.. Otherwise, I will see what I have at home.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linearentropy Posted September 19, 2018 Author Share Posted September 19, 2018 Well the boss went home early so I didn't let the opportunity go to waste. Got a perfectly sized off cut for the right price. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAN15H Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Anymore of these around? Possibly 25mm or 50mm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
