Thanks Paul. I hadn't gotten that far to be able to take a good picture. It was more of a general question about the pictures to see if anyone had the old adds.

My set seems to look a little cheap? They are the short version and they are a 2"(may be 1.5"?) didn't measure. Ofcourse they have the thick 1/2" mounting plate with the shock attachment. I had talked to someone and they think that they may be old Mr. Gaskets?

If they are of Day 2 era, I would reuse them, but I don't like the fact that they don't hit the spring perch. I can see that the leaf is already bowed where the snubber hits.

I will try to get some better pics to post.

I think Pete Suriano made them in his shop in Pottstown. Guarantee they are Day-2 vintage if Pete made them. The metal is 40 years old and the snubbers probably came from an A-frame bumper somewhere. HA!
