Hi,

Does anyone know where I can get 4 bumps stops for an RM?

Many thanks

I tried my usual suppliers 4 years ago and none available. I don't think Lionel Moss has any either.

You could make some by cutting blocks of rubber and glueing them onto the metal plate.

My bus number (if any): RML2532

Not sure what parts you mean Martin, although Roy seems to, do you mean the rubber blocks on the front bar to which the radiator grille fixes?

My bus number (if any): RTL 960 RMC 1458 RM 1585 and several RTs

I am looking for some too, these are attached to both wishbones ie 4 per vehicle.

Hi Roys

Colin The Doc says we can get them from here -

stock items from Walker Rubber and plastics
Norwich.

Yes it is the 4 on the wishbones, probably badly described by me. They're held on by two bolts each and they are officially called the bump stops.

If it turns out that I can't get them off the shelf I have actually today bought 4 Land Rover ones which fit the old series 3/2a's, these are only about £13.50 for the 4 They are a little bit too big however I'm sure I could cut them down and reshape them to the correct size if I have to.

Whenever I source parts from where ever or get bits matched up I always keep a record of the supplier and part numbers etc which I am happy to pass on to others. It would probably be a good idea if a few of us could do the same and we would build up a good data base of where to go for what.

I will keep you posted.
