So when I was doing the rear suspension on my car there was a part that I didn’t replace. I think it’s called the dampener or something like that. I wanted to know what brands are good out there that make them.

My Chilton's manual calls the part the axle damper. Does anyone know of a good brand for these?

a more common name for them is quad shocks . I know bilstein makes some .

Also where is a good place to get them and how much should I expect to pay?

Factory is sufficient. Most people just leave them out once they go bad or do a suspension set up anyway.

Well mine is all rusted and is making noises when I drive so if I just take it out it will not matter? I was just looking for a new one because I didn’t think they could cost much.

Check EBay. They're inexpensive. I took them out on my last Mustang and I didn't notice a difference.

The factory used 'em to help control axle wrap. Control arms with stiffer bushings will control the axle much better.
