I made pads out of polypropylene from a 5-gallon bucket lid. I epoxied a "button" on top to fit into the depression that's in the leafs. Stayed put too
New rubbing blocks are sold, not the exact Datsun designs, but similar, or in full strips http://google.com/search?q=leaf+spring+liner out of poly/vinyl or Teflon. Others have used Nylon or Molykote or just purchased Nylatron already done up that way. UHMW polyethylene and SLIP Plate are two others. Some are dry-lubricant coatings
Nissan recommended Molykote 7 (Nissan 44003-7S000) not as a replacement rubbing block but as a leaf spring anti-squeak lubricant
