I have those exact same springs on my new restoration. Its a dealer installed item in 1950 anyway. You can still get new rubber bumpers from Chevs of the 40s. I have two sets. One for each resto. I really cant imagine them adding much extra capacity, but they are conversation pieces!

Does that now qualify as a Camper Special? LOL!
