They simply push onto a steel "mushroom" that is welded to the top of a plate where the rubber ends up sitting. If your mushroom is still there, then you're all set for a replacement, but the mushrooms often rust off. I don't know if rust is a probem in Israel, however. I doubt it. I'll have to check to see if I have a spare bump stop here. > Are the bang and the creak connected, and should I be worried? I'd be worried until I could pin it down. It could be almost anything, from something kicked up from the road that meant nothing, to a cracked brake drum, but if everything still seems fine and you can't repeat it or find anything broken, then that, at least, is something of a relief. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
