I spoke to Rick Ehrenberg about snubbers a while back.

This is what he said:

"You need some kind of windup control for sure with any pure leaf-spring rear suspension. The other option, other than the snubber, would be Cal-Tracs.

You also might get away without the snubber if you use quadrashocks (Just Suspension has the kit as 'Ground Pounder'). The old-fashioned "traction
bars" also accomplish this, but they bind up the rear suspension making them a disaster for street driving.

With no windup control, it is possible to momentarily over-angle the U-joints, resulting in instant destruction -- not pretty if you're at WOT in the 60-foot!"
