Title: How to fit 105 front upper control arm bump stop
Post by: drewrgs on January 11, 2021, 10:26:53 PM
Has anyone got a handy hint for fitting a front upper control arm bump stop to a 105?
It's a classic oversized round peg into a square hole.
Copious amounts of lube and a day under a g-clamp can't get me there.

The bump stop was missing when I tore the suspension down. Think I may now know why.

Thanks Robert, that worked a treat.

Shameless plug for https://www.manningmotors.com.au/ if anyone else is looking someone who knows their way around a 105.

Concur totally regarding Robert at Manning motors - was looking for a wishbone bump stop for my '67 Step Nose and he helped me too.
