Abstract

A snubber inner member has a doubly convex outer surface portion having a central longitudinal axis. A shim/spacer stack secured to the outer surface portion couples the snubber inner member to the second member. A retainer having one or more engagement surfaces cooperates with one or more engagement surfaces of the snubber inner member to constrain lateral movement of the snubber inner member relative to the retainer while permitting longitudinal movement of the snubber inner member away from the retainer. An elastomer secures the retainer to the first member.
