The springs of the Citroen 2CV operate inside a steel cylinder. The pull rods which act on the springs have a leather washer similar to the vacuum wiper but much bigger. The washers trap air between the two springs which acts as a suspension damper.
On the 2CV springs the washers are lubricated with castor oil or vegetable cooking oil.
