If you mean the lower rubbers between the dished washers then make sure you get the sleeve that goes inside them.

You may find all this lot seized up.. clean up thread and plusgas well before removing nut, if it shears the threaded rod, you'll need a new drop-arm, though they can be repaired by a good metal fitter.

GSF do the rubbers and sleeve...

GSF do the rubbers (damping rings) and sleeve... don't overtighten when doing back up, though the nut should run up to the shoulder. The dished washers are normally fitted dish outwards. Loosening the main arb at its front attachment points might be necessary to get the drop arms out of the wishbone.
