The rod in post 102 looks a bit short for the snubber but maybe so. Don't remember seeing one like that in the service letters but could be one of the revisions. It almost looks more like the brace used on some models at each side of the radiator cradle between it and the frame.

Early prewar snubbers were two flat bars with vulcanized rubber joining them in the middle. Later ones had an affair that looks similar to tie rod end pieces bolting to brackets and joining the transmission to the frame. Postwar snubbers introduced sometime in the 21st series just used a round rod and rubber cushions.

Here are the later prewar and the post war items.
