Yah, I wanna know a little more about them too. I have a pair inside my front coils. But they are cracked and aged.. about 3 inches long?
I don't think I have anything on the rear anymore.

Same. Mine rusted away - the bolts are still in the frame along with whatever remains of the tabs that held them on.

My fronts are kinda shabby too. Backs are hanging in there but looking a little shabby too. Fronts won't get replaced unless I go forward with the Up Country Suspension that I would like to do. I figure if I try to replace the backs I am just going to snap bolts so figure do them with the Up Country suspension too. At least with the spring out can get a clean shot at them. Not like they ever have to do their job. Just a DD. Don't even think I have been on a dirt road with her. Unless you count my friends back driveway to his garage. LOL.

no front bump stop can lead to trans cooler lines being crushed,
check them for damage
front bumpstops are cheap, but the springs need to come out
to replace the them, they are a press fit into metal tubes
