Default steering bump stop

After doing my ball joints I found my left steering bump stop, sheared, in the driveway. Looks like it was hanging on by a thread and I must have knocked it at some point.

Anyone know where I can find one? I've searched and found nothing. Junk yards here don't have rovers...

Of course, I have to get the rest of the bolt out so this may be academic.

I have found there are at least 2 different lengths on D2s, maybe a 3rd.

The shortest(best in my opinion) is 1" long exposed.

I have some of the longer ones, measure yours and let me know.

If you have the shorter ones I might have one, that is assuming I read abran's post correctly that he doesn't have a short set, I don't want to scalp his sale, so talk to him first.

The head is one inch.

I'm kicking myself for not taking them off my parts car, which was CRUSHED (bastards!!!) but now that yall mentioned it I do recall that it had what seemed to be very long stops that would not have worked.

I don't have the shorter ones...Scalper!

Wasn't really looking to sell a bolt though, was thinking he pays shipping and that's it. Oops! Hope I didn't ruin your sale! JK

Haha, I was thinking the same. Actually, I need to message you about some parts for myself soon, nobody seems to have what I'm looking for.

Anywho Charlie, I'm out if town right now but let me get home and measure what I've got just to make sure they're the short ones. I'll message you tomorrow or Sunday.

Ok, If Alex doesn't have one, I was taking off 2 from a parts car Today for my sisters Discovery and one broke, so I have 1 short one for the cost of shipping if Alex can't make $100 off of you!

Man, I was going for $200!

I'll tell you what, Charlie. If I can fit this thing in an envelope then I'll just slap some stamps on it and send it, no charge, no shipping. I've got a few stamps I'm going to lose if I don't use them. Pm me your shipping address and if it's the short length then I'll drop it in the mail for you.
