FCM Bumpstops Question

Post by Ed Holley »

Not sure if this is the appropriate place. I'm also posting on Miata.net.

I have FCM bumpstops and spacers that I ordered from Shaikh @ FCM. I'm putting the front shock/spring setup back together today and I'm wondering if the bumps and spacers are supposed to have such a large diameter compared to the 12mm Koni shaft diameter. I kind of thought the bumps would be a snug fit over the shaft and in the case of the spacers (9mm) they are way bigger ID-wise.

Comments? Help?

I dont know about the Koni specific ones, but I have their full coilover package (non-adjustable) and the bumpstops are loose around the shaft. I would imagine the inside diameter is at least +2mm or more vs the OD of the shaft.
