However, because you need to remove the shock and then put it back after you replace the bump stops, it will be a good idea to redo the alignment in my opinion.

If you're going to the effort of replacement of the bump stops and doing a wheel alignment again, it might be more worthwhile to look at replacing other stuff while the shocks out.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyone had these replaced lately and an idea on price. Assume a wheel alignment is required. Thanks

POST 2Original post

Bump stops replacement should not alter a wheel alignment per se. However, because you need to remove the shock and then put it back after you replace the bump stops, it will be a good idea to redo the alignment in my opinion. If you're going to the effort of replacement of the bump stops and doing a wheel alignment again, it might be more worthwhile to look at replacing other stuff while the shocks out. Anything else looking tired? Bushes all OK?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well it was a bit under utilized, done 27k, so not a lot of k's for its age. Can't believe that eurathane can deteriorate so badly when it has basically no exposure to UV. Other bushes all seem ok. Will go with a alignment though.

POST 4Original post

Had them done on a 986 this year, so same same really... dealership $1100.00, Independent $330.00 Slight difference in cost...

POST 5Original post

I had mine done about 3 weeks ago. The bumps stops themselves came with the car from the previous owner. He had bought them, but not had them fitted. I had them fitted and 4 wheel alignment done for about $480.
