Differential Suspension |
Partnumber: 1883 Datsun Roadster Competition Short Bump Stop Rear Suspension. Differential Housing Competition Short Bump stop. Designed to be specifically installed when using competition leaf springs which lower the ride height in the back by 2 inches. Never before available. Even Nissan Comp never carried these. Yes you can cut your old taller ones on the car. Be aware that sometimes the originals on the car do become hard overtime and loose all progressive properties. New old stock units have a tendency to harden overtime as well. Also you can not simply hack off 2 inches. Here is why. Note that pictured bump stop comes to a point. The bump stop should be progressive and have a spring quality to preserve proper suspension handling. Not convinced? Hack the originals off to a flat surface, hit the track and see what happens. These were made by a qualified Suspension component manufacturer and design was shown and imput received from experts in racing. Don't like them? Don't think they're shaped properly. That's OK. Buy the new stock tall ones from us and modify them anyway you want. Click here, to view the tall ones and to also compare height difference. Bob Sharp's manual has some interesting versions of modified originals. The choice is yours. Second photo is with comp bump stops installed. |
