Jammy123 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I fitted new polyurethane bump stops a while back (the orange deflex extended ones). However I do not have a lift kit nor huge tyres and want to cut them down to the proper size which I forgot to measure before binning the remaining old ones I removed!! I think there 30mm higher than standard? Anyone know? Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind swapping my standard pair for your extended if your interested but you would have to wait until I get the other one off which I doubt I will be able to do for at least another week.

Dosco ones are even smaller than the main RR 90 ones and better too, as they have a nipple and this gives more than when hitting a block, std are fine for basic applications, so what / why did you buy these over std stuff ?

Cheers, Colin. That picture is absolutely spot on! I would of swapped, however I have already cut them down im afraid ready for my next outing! Cheers for the pic though.

Nige Well I brought them when I first got my first Defender. I thought at the time they would be better (because they were bigger), only after I got them I realised this was not the case! I fitted them anyway but after a far bit of off roading I you can see they have contacted the axle a far bit (although they cause no problems), I now just want to trim them down to the standard size.
