Honda introduced the third generation of the CR-V, internal model code RE, for the 2007 model year and produced it through 2011. The crossover uses a MacPherson strut front axle and a compact multilink rear axle, and every rear damper carries a small cushioning component that most owners never notice until it fails: the rear strut bump stop, listed in the Honda parts book under OE number 52722-SWA-A01. Bonpora supplies this reference under Bonpora No. 4110218, molded in polyurethane with a bore of 12 mm, an outer diameter of 40.8 mm, and a height of 49.3 mm. This page is written for importers, parts distributors, and suspension workshops that source Honda parts by OEM number.
In the Honda catalog the number appears as Rubber, Rear Bump Stop, and is also described as a strut bumper. The part slides over the damper rod of each rear strut, sits between the dust sleeve and the strut mount, and compresses when the rear suspension reaches full bump travel. Once it hardens, powders, or collapses with age, full compression ends in metal-to-metal contact that announces itself as a sharp knock over potholes and speed bumps. Related suspension components can be found in our shock absorber parts catalog.
The SWA model code refers to the third generation CR-V built from 2007 to 2011. On each side of the rear axle, the damper assembly consists of a strut, a coil spring, a dust sleeve, and the bump stop. The 52722-SWA-A01 is the progressive cushion at the end of the damper rod travel. Honda lists the part as a direct replacement for the left and right rear positions, so one vehicle requires two pieces. The component is also included with the complete strut assembly, which means many workshops renew it together with the damper rather than as a separate job.
The bump stop performs three tasks. First, it works as a progressive auxiliary spring: during the last portion of compression it raises the spring rate and keeps the damper from bottoming out. Second, it protects the damper rod and the rod seal from impact loads that would otherwise shorten the life of the strut. Third, it helps control rear ride height when the vehicle carries a full load of passengers or cargo. A fresh bump stop keeps the rear axle quiet over sharp inputs, while a worn one lets the suspension crash through its travel and transfers harsh hits into the body.

Buyers should note the generation boundaries. The previous generation CR-V, built from 2002 to 2006, uses a different rear bump stop reference, and the fourth generation built from 2012 onward uses 52722-T0A-A01. Confirming the VIN or the existing part number before ordering avoids mismatches, because visually similar cushions can differ in bore, diameter, and height by a few millimeters.
Polyurethane and rubber cushions age gradually, so early signs are easy to overlook. Common symptoms reported by workshops include:
Because the part is inexpensive and sold in pairs, most suppliers and service shops recommend replacing both sides at the same time and inspecting the dust sleeves and dampers during the same job. Distributors who serve markets with rough road conditions often stock this reference together with dust sleeves and strut mounts, because the three components are exposed to the same environment and are usually replaced in one service visit.
Original cushions are molded in rubber, which is cost effective but sensitive to ozone, heat cycles, and compression set. Polyurethane resists these aging mechanisms better, holds its shape through repeated compressions, and keeps consistent stiffness over a wider temperature range. The compound also tolerates contact with road salt and moisture, which matters in coastal and winter markets where rubber cushions tend to swell or crack earlier. For vehicles that operate on rough roads or carry commercial loads, the material choice directly extends service intervals. Bonpora molds the 4110218 cushion in polyurethane to match the original dimensions while improving durability. More material information is available in our polyurethane bump stops section.
For wholesale buyers, consistency between batches matters as much as material. Bonpora controls compound hardness and cures parts in calibrated molds, then checks bore, outer diameter, and height on defined inspection points. This keeps cushions within tolerance across repeat orders, which reduces warranty claims and returns for distributors who ship the same reference to many markets.
Many buyers locate this part by searching the OE number 52722-SWA-A01 or cross references from aftermarket catalogs. Supplying by OEM number keeps the purchasing process simple: the buyer sends the reference, the supplier confirms dimensions and material, and quotations follow with a defined lead time. Bonpora supports this workflow and marks every batch with the Bonpora No. 4110218 for traceability.
Beyond the catalog reference, Bonpora offers OEM and custom design support for suspension cushions. Customers can send a drawing, a dimension table, or a physical sample, and the engineering team prepares molds for the required bore, outer diameter, height, and hardness. Trial batches allow distributors to test a custom cushion on a target market before committing to volume production, and the same process covers related dust stops and strut accessories.
Each production batch passes dimensional inspection and hardness checks before packing. Parts are packed in neutral export packaging without third party branding, which lets distributors supply the cushions under their own label. Inspection records can be provided with each shipment on request, which helps importers meet the documentation requirements of their own quality systems. Standard delivery time is 15 to 30 days depending on order volume, and cartons are packed for container or air freight. Bonpora provides a 1 year warranty on the part against material and workmanship defects.
The ordering process follows four steps. First, send the OE number 52722-SWA-A01, the Bonpora No. 4110218, or your own drawing to the sales team. Second, receive a quotation with unit price, packaging details, and lead time. Third, confirm samples if required. Fourth, schedule mass production and shipment. For quotations, sample requests, or custom design discussions, contact our sales team directly.
The reference fits the third generation Honda CR-V, model code RE, built from 2007 to 2011, covering North American 2.4 L versions, European 2.0 i-VTEC versions, and 2.2 liter diesel versions. Always confirm the VIN or the old part number, because the previous and next CR-V generations use different references.
Two pieces, one for each rear strut. Workshops normally replace them in pairs so that both sides of the rear axle keep the same cushioning characteristic. The bump stop is also included with the complete strut assembly, so a damper replacement job usually renews the cushions at the same time.
The damper bottoms out at full compression, which produces knocking noises and sends impact loads into the damper rod and seal. Over time this accelerates oil leakage and shortens the life of the strut, turning a low cost cushion job into a damper replacement job.
Yes. Bonpora offers OEM and custom design support for polyurethane cushions. Customers provide a drawing, a dimension table, or a sample, and the factory molds parts to the required bore, diameter, height, and hardness, with trial batches available before volume production.
Bonpora manufactures and exports suspension cushioning parts, including strut bump stops, dust stops, and polyurethane suspension components for passenger cars worldwide. Whether you need the 52722-SWA-A01 rear bump stop for the 2007-2011 Honda CR-V or a custom design of your own, the team can quote dimensions, material options, and lead times within one business day.
