Hey guys, rear bump stops when lowered. I know you can cut them down but does anyone know if the front bump stops off a link pin will push over the ends (mushroom/nipple etc) of the rear swing axle bracket. I could be a much neater solution.

I drilled the spot welds that secure the nipples removed them then bolted Mini bump stops on.

Bump Stops......   Do anything but use reproduction bump stops....   I have a pair of new ones on the front of my beam. Have been on about 18 months with buggy in garage but never on the road as yet. The two stops became scrap 6 months after fitting !!!!!!   Tears within the material all around each stop. Totally not fit for purpose.....  (Have the original rubber bumps stops at rear and they are as good as they day they went on in 1975. No hardening no tearing whatsoever).

Flags, do they fit in the recess? Tried to find dimensions but no luck. Is it front bump stops for a classic mini I need?
