hi, what is thier benefit ? I,m a FCA member...

Most of the originals have rusted out and up until now replacements were not avaiilable.

so this washer goes in the body/frame along with the rubber bushings for the spring perch ???? do you have a diagram/picture off a shop manual... I,m in the process of installing new leaf springs and the mounting holes are in need of repair...

No. this goes inside the middle of the rubber isolators that clamp around the leaf springs. Here is a picture. The parts are circled in yellow. Some people have eliminated the rubbers, but for those who need the parts, they are soon available.

Thanks for the info. If someone is going to push the car hard and it is no longer stock I would suggest getting rid of the rubber. It makes a big differance. That is a part that even on a rust free car becomes...rusty.

now this is the type of info that is needed here !!!! thank you guys...

I think that part of the reason the rubber isolators get such a bad rap, is that the inner steel spacer is gone on most cars or was taken apart at one time and not replaced. With these pieces gone, it allows alot of unwanted movement. Now that the spacers are available, it gives people a choice.

I just looked at the rubbers in my car and they are marked MUSTANG on the ends ? can't I just replace with some for a mustang ?

What year is your car? In 66 they went to 2 1/2" wide springs. Same as the mustang.
