Hassler One-Way Shocks
Does anyone have any info on the later one-way, strap or "snubber" style Hasslers?

I hadn't seen the bottom pictures, thank you! As much advertising as regular Hasslers had I am surprised how little literature I have been able to find on these.

Go to the Header on the top of this page and click on Gallery, then scroll to Vowell Art, this page has info.
The Hassler Snubbers were late to the party so little info as Ford already had the re-branded Burd-Gilman shock absorber (snubbers) in early 1926 and making these avail to owner thru Ford dealers.
And if you can get back issues #440, 442,443,444 in 2022 of Model T Times (MTFCI) there is a 4 part series of how to repair/ restore and complete history (#440 issue) of the Ford accessory rebound units by James A Mahaffey, Atlanta GA.
