1965 rear spring outer mount questions

[Joseph E.]

Hello,

Is the large flat washer installed with the rounded edge facing the rubber cushion or does the rounded edge face away from it? Does anyone have experience with using polyurethane spring cushions in place of the stock rubber ones? I'm wondering if they will last longer and maintain proper ride height better without causing issues or making noise. Thank you.

And, use rubber (NOS if you can find them)...poly will disintegrate pretty quickly.
