Installing eibach prokit questions - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

adrixe · 05-04-2015, 10:59 PM

Hey guys, newbie here.
I recently bought a prokit here from another member. It only came with 2 bumpstops. The smaller one. (Still waiting for his reply if he still has the other 2 bumpstops)

My question now is, can I use my stock bumpstop if ever that he doesnt have the other pair? I've searched the web where I could buy one, anybody knows where I could buy one?

Thanks a bunch!

I was able to search some answer from other topic here.

My question is where can I buy the replacement bumpstop?

Mods can close this before someone get upset for me not searching hard enough.

For some reason, my Sportlines only came with three bumpstops... Two for the front and one in the rear. I ended up just cutting the stock ones and re-using them...

You can cut & reuse the stock ones. You can contact Eibach; they will sell you new ones. Finally, you can thank the interwebs for providing you with part numbers, and then you can surf the interwebs to find the best deal.

I contacted Eibach about them and I think they are $30 each from them.

That's pretty steep for bump stops

adrixe · 05-05-2015, 12:06 PM

If i cut the stock ones, how much do i cut?

adrixe · 05-05-2015, 07:30 PM

Anybody has an info on the length of the front bumpstop for the prokits?

FR-Shred · 05-06-2015, 01:46 AM

I cant speak for those, but my s tech kit, which lowers it even more said to not cut the fronts and cut the rears .6". which is a little bit lower of a kit but not by much.. I know spring rates very and all but it might be a rough est since no one else chimed in.

The bump stops that came with my pro kit did not even fit my shocks - the holes were too small. I just reused the stock ones.

I took off the first bulge off the bottom, about 1/2". The top part of the bump stop is sized to fit snugly onto the shaft of the shock, don't cut that off.

Thanks so much. No issues or anything like that with your setup so far?

no, that sounds about right. If you think that's steep, the ones for my truck were $50.......

Do people seriously just post and not ready anything. I posted the part numbers from Eibach. They may charge $30 for the fronts, but with a little googling you'll easily find that they are Audi A4 bump stops that can be had for $5. Just cut the rears.
