52 Rubber Bump Stop
On the top of the frame under the top suspension arm there is a missing rubber bump stop on my 52 Merc. Shocks are new but on occasion the suspension arm will bottom out on the top of the frame making quite a bump. I'm guessing new rubber is available but how big a job is it to install? Hoping it will just press in from the top but thinking possibly the coil spring has to come out to get the job done. Picture of where it is supposed to go.
I see they have it at C&G Ford. https://cgfordparts.com/ufolder/show...s=6&g=57&t=323

Re: 52 Rubber Bump Stop
My experience with that type of bumper is to lube it with silicone or rubber lube then twist and push it in the hole to the grove in the bumper. Being a farmer, I'll bet you can get it done.

Re: 52 Rubber Bump Stop
Just plugs into the hole.
I have always used just soapy water to install.

Re: 52 Rubber Bump Stop
Thanks for the info and pictures. Sounds like an easy fix once I order the new part.
