Snubbers. They are supposed to take the bounce out of your ride.

Ivan,
No, you "reel-y" don't want to keep them. Just box them up and mail them to me, I'll even mail you back the shipping costs!! :-)
Looks like the rear cable needs some attention.

Your snubbers are Ford accessory parts, made for the Touring car, part #T3209 and other body types part #T 3208.



Picture from Feb 1926 Ford Service Bulletin.

Rather nice accessory to keep on your T :-)

You will find a Ford script on the backing plates of those snubbers - they are the real thing.

A fairly "hard to find" item. Keep them!

I have Bosch snubbers on my T but they have cotton web straps instead of cables like Ivans. Does anyone know how to find replacement straps, and how to replace?

thanks

Vince
