BumpStop

Do the Bilstein Sport Shock come with bump stops? Or do you need to use the factory ones? I'm not talkin bout the spring pad, but the actual bumpstop in the shock. Dont want it to bottom out.

I had a friend who installed shocks for his miata and he had to reuse his original bumpstop.

Educate me. Anyone?

e
never done a benz, but if theres bump stops fitted to the original dampers, then suggest you remove them, then fit them to the new dampers. Either that or e-mail the manufacturer of your uprated shockers and see what they say.

The Bilsteins came with the Bump stops on the replacement shocks (BILSTEIN)...When I replaced the front shocks on my W210 wagon they were on them...

Rear Im Not sure since the wagon is Self level...
