Remember to order the castelated nuts to secure the bump stops. Steve does these also.

Oh Bother! Castelated Nuts!
Drat it, one should have thought about that! Do the bump stops come with them, if not please can I have Castelated Nuts to go as well?
Many thanks
Steve

For those asking about early,mid and late production use of the stops, as Kent already said, they were the same for all production years of the Tiger 1. However, when I designed and built the masters for my stops, I date-marked them '42, '43, and '44 as well as a generic one without a date(only cast in factory numbers). Not sure if Steve molded all the date versions or not but either way.....you can hardly see the numbers anyway.

Steve his Bump stops normally come as a preassembled set with the bolts&nuts.

For Early & Mid you can't go wrong with model 1942, thanks Tim for the pictures.

Hi all,

I now have enough orders to order another batch of castings for The Bump Stops,
But these will not be in for at least 3/4 weeks.
As the caster is busy at the moment.


Regards
Steve

I received my stops from Steve and they are truly magnificent! It adds that detail that makes your tank better than the next. A step up to that model that will win awards in a show. Thanks Steve!
