Hello, While doing a re & re on the front brakes, I noticed that the passenger side lower control arm has a rubber bump stop and the drivers side doesn't, no mounting points either. Is this normal?

Thanks, Steve. I called one of the local heavy truck shops for brake part prices and asked about the stops. Hopefully he will have an answer tomorrow. I like the idea of the stop because I noticed on the bumpy driveway and on the highway with big dips, the left front wheel rubs against the floor. I want a bump stop on the driver side.

There are 1986 GM P series manuals in the archives. Most applies to your 91 (assuming it's GM not Ford/Oshkosh.) Do you have fuel injection?

The manuals are in the "Ads, documentation, etc" forum under "Attachments for Downloading" mechanic
Good luck with your project. I'm just starting my engine swap. Thumbs Up

Got both of my bump stops for Old Blue at Henderson's Lineup in Oregon. They are a good source for P30 suspension parts. Many items are of better design than oem.
