Repro Rear bump stops? Thoughts?

PostPost by: Brock » Fri Jul 07, 2023 5:23 pm

Hi again All.

I need two rear Aeon springs. My originals are a little cracked. I can find only one new unit.

I'm suspicious of the reproduction ones. I imagine they're polyurethane. The originals are actually engineered and they work exactly as intended. Can a poly copy really do that? (if they are poly).

Thoughts?

The original company Timbren is out of Eastern Canuckleland
Oakville maybe?
Look on their chart, find size. And I find its best to order from them, as opposed to Lordco Uniselect etc
Some have added alloy spacers to introduce jounce early

Find out where the limits are, and start from there

Right... 22mm spacers. Will do.
