OEM Rubber Bump Stop
Hey all,
I am rebuilding my suspension; it has 181K miles on the original suspension so its definitely time for an overhaul.
I am order all the parts I need from HondaAutomotiveParts and I ran into a snag.
I am looking for the rubber bump stop for the front shocks; I found them but there are two different parts numbers/names for the same listed parts:
RUBBER, BUMP STOP (POLYURETHANE) (KASEI) $14.08
RUBBER, FR. BUMP STOP (BASF) $4.82
I was told that this is the same part just different manufacturers. I can see this since it is KASEI and BASF. Which part is better? I am not too familiar with those manufacturers, but if I went along the lines of the saying "You get what you pay for", Kasei would be better, but since im ordering from honda, i would expect them to be equal in quality.
