Rear Snubber Part Number / Sources
#1
#2
I used the upper one- Part # 99156. It seems to leave less of a gap then the OEM snubber and doesn't contact the spring as hard. I also bought the second one, but it was smaller and left a bigger gap which to me meant it would engage later than the larger one.
Or maybe my old one was just so worn, anything is better ! Seat of the pants wise, it's worked quietly and smoothly.

Just to clarify a little, that rear bottom front half only leaf is NOT a helper spring, it's a traction bar that put there to fight the axle wrap on the weak Soccer Mom rear springs. A snubber with less of a gap above it will be better as it will go to work more quickly as the axle rotates up.
