Greetings again, Does anyone know where I could get a pair of rubber rear suspension stops for my 1.3 copen, the ones it has have both come off? The parts are marked 48342 on the attached https://www.viamoto.co.uk/prodimages/daihatsu-copen-1300cc-rear-suspension-exploded-diagram.jpg Not sure if the suspension for the 660cc would suit or if there are any alternative part from any other car would suit. Appreciate any help.
Thanks for the quick reply. I have tried my usual suppliers but they can't trace any countrywide. I was wondering if anyone had any experience of using general parts. The stopsdo just seem to be similar to others available and seem "just" to be solid rubber cones with a bolt to fix to the suspension.
If your local (ex) Diahatsu dealer can't help, can you remove one and see if a local motor factors can match it.
Have a look for 48341 on ebay. If I had the exact parts number (something like 48341-10000) I could pinpoint the correct part. It could be this one: Stoßdämpfer Febest TD-ACV40R | eBay
Just an update for interest sake. Contacted another supplier and hopefully parts are on their way...from its Middle East supplier. Seems that the Diahatsu uk supplier wasn't that confident of getting the parts.
So that's them all fitted and hopefully the occasional formula1esque bottoming will stop. For general info, Looking at them I suspect that some generic kit car stops would have done just as well...just in case the originals run out completely. Thanks again for the suggestions and pointers
