Rear Bump Stop Retainers/Cups? Help!
A while back, I must have landed a bit hard, and lost my rear bump stops. The axle has come into contact with the bump stop retainers/cups a few times since, and they are now fairly mangled. As a result, bump stops will no longer stay in place. See below:
A few questions:
1. What is the cup/retainer actually called?
2. Has this happened to anyone else? I cannot seem to find a thread on this--or any other forum--with the same issue.
3. Any ideas on how to fix it? I'm doubtful it can be simply bent back into shape ... it's almost as if I would have to get the cups cut off and a replacement welded back on. I guess I could go for the Evo Rock Stops, but that would be a very expensive proposition.
Help! Thanks!
