Default Power Steering Bump Stop O ring

Hi All,
87 S4 Auto

Does anyone know the dimensions for the "O" ring that is inside the stops that go on the steering rack outer members?

AFAIK it is only available as a part of the stop itself, (Item 3 in pic), which doesn't really make sense to me as an o ring /rubber product has a shelf life..



Thanks for any help.

John

Here are a couple of pictures. The silver stop is 10mm and the black rubber one is 15mm.

Thanks Kevin,
I think I am using the wrong nomenclature.
Maybe it isn't a bump stop at all and just an outer stop. It installs over the rack shaft and not on the actual tie rod arm..

I need the internal O ring size..
I may just try to match it up at the store, but our parts stores here leave a bit to be desired.

Thnx

You will not find it at a parts store. It is the bump stop.
