April 16, 200718 yr Hmm, some kind of question: I noticed some kind of rubber spring deflection limitation (I hope this is understandable ) in the rear of one of my donor cars (1993) near the struts. All other cars inclusive my 1989 one don't have this limitation there, just the mounting for it. Could this be used in combination with the air suspension of my 1989 EA82T? I have some problems with my wide base tyres and the wheel arch (touching each other now and then) and I think this limitation could/would prevent this. But because I haven't seen this limitation before I'm not sure. And to make it more worse: The nuts of the donor car are too rusty, so that they will not loose. Also I can't find that things in any shop, can anyone tell me the part number?
April 16, 200718 yr I can't tell you the part number right now. Tonight I can when I'll be home. But they are just a form of overload/bottom out bumper. They have probably just fallen off of your other ones. The tend to espescially in places where they salt roads. Not really nessecary at all
April 16, 200718 yr Author Could be possible that the just rust away on my EA82T, don't really know, but my two other cars (1987 GL and 1986 DL) don't have the mounting there at all... Anyway, are this things useful in some way? And what's their correct name? My technical english is not so good at all Would be very nice if you could tell me the part number later
April 16, 200718 yr usually they are called bumpstops. The glue that bonds them to the mount gives way as rust works it's way in, and they fall off.
April 17, 200718 yr 21023 GA170,Subaru calls it a "helper".Only found on 86 up wagons and 4wd 4drs according to the north american parts book.
