Rubber Suspension Springs

Everyone talks about wetbolts and sleeves, but I haven't heard much mention of the "Rubber Suspension Spring" that is in located between the two leaf springs. I was checking the leaf spring area and noticed the RSS was severely cracked and separating from the metal shackle. I called MorRyed and asked about the shackle, they said it should be replaced. I had sent pictures for reference to what I was describing. The rubber section looked like a worn out set of motor mounts. So, I just thought I would send this in for everyone to take note on the RSS as well as the leafs, bolts and sleeves. Oh yes, when I had the RSS replaced, I had them check the brakes and re-do the bearings, being that everything was torn apart. A little labor savings.
