HELP!
Need to bond front rubber bump stop to the metal base. Evostik IMPACT adhesive? What else will do the job?
Yes, yes, I know I should fit a new one but I'm against the clock, here!

Have you tried superglue..?
Worked ok on my chainsaw anti vibe mounts.

'Have tried Evostik Impact and actually waiting for it to dry like they say you should.
We shall see.

Superglue is very hard to beat for this type of application.

Evostick would be absolutely USELESS for an applicatio like this.
Superglue is the one to use, they do a flexible version specifically for sticking rubber to metal Too!

That's good to know although the Evostik job lasted a full(ish) track day at Silverstone on Friday

Instead of glue I sawed up an old motor mount and made a buffer to the size I needed.
