I have seen several offroad beetles and buggies fitted with bump/rebound stops on the front trailing arms. This has been a welded stop on the beam and a corresponding welded "thingy"on the trailing arm. Wes, I think you may have this ???

Can you buy this over the counter or can someone make me one !

Craig,

Get yourself a copy of this and then you can make them yourself, or at least show someone what is required and have them make them for you.

Any chance of photo's of front ends with this !! I'm doing the front beam this week and this would help.

Not for the Hillclimb car Cam !! Its 1 of six VW powered toys in the collection 😀

This is for my current project, an offroad J&S buggy. I just want to set it up right the first time.

You freakin what? 6? :o lol.

Sounds cool dude! Have been contemplating getting a buggy, running IRS/balljoint, 4 wheel disks, down low with a close ratio box and nippy T1 motor.

What other toys have you got? 😀
