The bump stop includes a bump cap fitted on and fixedly secured to the packing cap, a bump plate for directly abutting the bump rubber and a plate cap formed to be integral with the bump plate and adapted to be fitted on and hooked to the bump cap, thereby preventing the plate cap from coming off the bump cap. | |
