I dont think there is legal size as such but they must be effictive not just a jandel glued on if you know what I mean. You should be able to get some from repco, super cheap or some were like bnt automotive. If they dont have what your after you can always try a dismantlers for second hand ones.

For fucks sake. It would be nice if Repco/Supercheap actually gave their sales people some training. If you don't have a make & model/part number then 'No, we don't have it'. Fucking retards.

What are you after man. Front or rear stops?

I think they have already been posted here somewhere recently but there is a small bolt on bumpstop about 10mm thick available. If you can't find it here try on the Oldschool forum as it is definitely there with part numbers and I think a link to the catalogue. What are you using them for though? Unless you are getting it certed then you have to run un-modded factory bumpstops, another bolt in bumpstop won't be legal. If you are certing it then you are able to use trimmed down factory stops, however it really pays to get new to save any WoF time arguements. The other option is putting the stops on the shocks depending how your truck is set up.

hey mate

if your after standard ones best bet would be a wreckers i think.

i got my aftermarket front ones from Autolign in Carbine Road, worked a treat for what i needed.

This is Handy... location as well as "to know" lol

I pulled one from either side at the top and replaced the big as lower ones with them to get a nice as ride while being... lets say the factory ones were compressed by 1/2" and there wasn't much left exept the trampoline effect lol!
what else do they have? I'm after some shorter shocks too, hoping like hell shocks from another make of ute have the same mounts and are shorter... or sadly I have to say I'll even use Cortina ones if I have to... as long as they are nice and hard, shorter and fit like they are meant to be there!

cheers for good advice
