Searched the forum. One says Mr. Gasket 1287 and the other says Mr. Gasket 1285. I have a 2WD 1984 Van with rear coil springs.

Anyone know definitively which one works?

Thanks,

John

OK, I searched TVP and found the answer. It is Mr. Gasket 1285, up to two per side (top and bottom). Unless someone recommends the 1287,
I'll order the 1285's.

Thanks,

John

So it looks like the difference is that the Mr. Gasket #1287 has grooves on BOTH sides which would permit it to be installed in between the coils. The Mr. Gasket #1285 has grooves on only ONE side which requires that it be installed on either the top or the bottom of the spring.
