Oh c'mon! you've never hears of a snubber or droop catch??

When the car is lifted and the suspension left to hang, that's called droop, the droop catch is the metal tang that Mercedes welds to the lower rear control arm to stop the shock from having to take the full force of the spring pushing down on the control arm (or swing arm)

The Snubber is the rubber bumper that prevents the sduspension from traveling too far upward..
