Re: Rear suspension bump stop

My understanding is that PSV Partsmaster don't have rear suspension bump stops. I hope to be able to give details of a suitable replacement part, with an M12 thread, in the next few days. Thanks to everyone who has contacted me on and off the forum in the last couple of days.

My bus number (if any): RMs 238, 471 and 2213, GS17

Re: Rear suspension bump stop

I bought a pair from there recently, not RM type, but something that fits and will do the job.

My bus number (if any): RML2532

Re: Rear suspension bump stop

I rang John two days ago, he was unable to help with rebound bump stops. He is looking for one as a pattern to try and source some.(maybe the two Roy's could help him)
In the mean time I have found a Rubber manufacturer locally that can help, I bought a couple of samples in the week, they are fine, just waiting my order to arrive.
Cheers
Rob

Re: Rear suspension bump stop

As mentioned just a few days ago, not sure if anyone read this? Saves going down the road of getting remade..
When the ones on RML 2463 needed replacing I replaced them with bump stops for a Dennis Dart, I think they are for an Enviro 200 Dart. Does the job fine, just had to modify the mounting plate. The joke is 2463 has a bit more Dart on it to make it even more like a Dartmaster!
I'm sure Peter can confirm further details on this product.

Re: Rear suspension bump stop

Hi Mark,
In answer to your request in regards to the bump stop, I haven't got a part number as they were supplied to me through a friend in the bus industry, but as they are a Dennis product you would be able to get them from Transbus International.

Regards,
Peter.
