Product Information
The bump stop in your car’s suspension is designed to prevent the chassis from bottoming out onto the strut or shock absorber when taking excessive or unexpected jounces while driving, such as through construction zones or when carrying heavy loads. By absorbing and dissipating the impact, bump stops are important safety devices to prevent damage to the suspension or chassis from bottoming out.
Bump stops are usually made of dense polyurethane foam rubber, formulated to be relatively stiff and compact while maintaining durability over multiple impacts. Depending on the application, bump stops can have a few different design features, including reinforcements or internal structures. Some performance or sport-oriented vehicles have suspensions that utilize progressive bump stops as a second spring, making it crucial to ensure they are kept in good condition due to their importance in the vehicle’s everyday handling.
Although they are designed specifically to be durable, rubber or polyurethane bump stops will naturally age with time and exposure to the elements. Riding on the bump stops frequently will also significantly shorten their lifespan, so we recommend replacing them every time you replace your struts or shock absorbers.
Suspension Bump Stop Kit Failure Symptoms- Visible cracks or deterioration: With age and frequent use, bump stops can crack or rip, and otherwise deteriorate like most foam rubber. A split bump stop will no longer function correctly and should be replaced to prevent possible damage from an accidental bottoming out.
- Flattening or compression: For cars that use the bump stop more frequently to assist the normal handling of the vehicle, bump stops can become flat or compressed from frequent use.
- Clunking or knocking in extreme compression: If you are experiencing a bang when you go over a harsh dip or bump, you may be bottoming out your suspension due to a damaged or torn bump stop.
- Oil Leaks: While somewhat uncommon, some models of European cars may have a hydraulic bump stop. If they are damaged or torn, the hydraulic fluid will leak out, requiring replacement.
About Sachs
ZF Sachs AG, also known as Fichtel & Sachs was founded in Schweinfurt in 1895 and was a well-known German family business. At its last point as an independent company, the company name was Fichtel & Sachs AG. In 1997, the automotive supplier was taken over by Mannesmann and renamed Mannesmann Sachs AG. As of 2001, Sachs belonged to ZF Friedrichshafen as a subsidiary company ZF Sachs AG. In 2011, ZF Sachs, like other Group subsidiaries, was legally merged with ZF Friedrichshafen AG and the independent business units integrated into the ZF divisions. Sachs has since become a brand of ZF Friedrichshafen AG.
Sachs is a trusted brand of the ZF family, which includes Lemforder, TRW, Boge, Stabilus, ZF parts and Sachs Performance. All divisions are well respected within their automotive specialty as they are all OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) to car brands like Audi, Porsche, BMW, Volvo and more. Sachs specializes in shock absorbers, struts and clutches, with FCP Euro stocking many solutions based on your needs, be it an OE replacement or a higher performance clutch, shock or strut.
