Hi one and all from this UK Jimny driver.
I am wondering if you guys could answer a small query - my 2000 jimny has rather rusty bump stop cups - I know if I call in the garage they will huff n puff and say it is about time to trade her in for a new model but I will be buggered if that is happening to such a great little ride.
My question is - how would you guys go about fitting new cups - can I buy them as a panel or do I have to cut them from a junker - If they can be bought, where might I get them????.
Cheers.
D Hall

Hi - cheers for the feedback - will see how bad they look after knocking of the rust and crap from around them - always good to have a plan B to fall back on.
Cheers
