Dorman describes this part as a suspension leaf spring bumper, and it is also cataloged as a shock bumper. Both names refer to the same component. It is precision-engineered and tested to serve as a replacement for the original equipment on specific vehicles.

When the rear springs compress fully over large bumps or under a heavy load, the bumper provides a cushioned stop. Signs it may need replacing include a bumper that is cracked, crumbling or missing, or a harsh clunk when the rear suspension bottoms out. Other worn suspension parts can cause similar noises, so inspect the suspension before replacing.
