I have a set but I'm located in Canada and might not be worth it for you depending on where you live.

1 is angular/pointy, 3 others are square-ish

All metal? Please post a photo, because I've never seen one. The bumpstops I have are like Boyso's rectangular ones, and they're "GPW' and "F" marked.

The only metal bump stops I have ever seen are just the bases when the rubber part has fallen off :roll: :lol:

Hey guys. Thank for all the responses. Heres a pic of the metal bump stops that are under the frame. Sorry i dont have a close up yet. My buddy has a '43 GPW too and he has the exact same bump stops. They dont look like they ever had rubber on them. Check it out and let me know what you think. I have 3 of them on the frame. Im missing one in the front that has been replaced with a standard rubber one.

Those had rubber on them at one time.

Hey Cb
Brett and Mac are right!!! What you have are just the bases. At one time they had the rubber blocks moulded to them. Just more parts to add to the list. Sorry mate :roll:

Well it's unanimous! Ok I need to get new rubber bump stops. I thought it was kinda weird having all metal bump stops. This is my first GPW so there's going to be a learning curve. But that's why there's the "G"! Thanks jeep gurus!
