Two bolts.
Get an adjustable one, as you may not like the ride on the street with the Snubber set high.

An axle or pinion snubber adjusted close to the underside of the car (like a quarter inch) will launch better at the drag strip.
They prevent wheel hop, transfer more weight to the rear wheels, and help push the wheels into the ground.
As Pete says you need to back off the snubber on the street otherwise it will be hitting the floorpan on every bump.
There are two main types of adjustable. The cheaper one has a adjustment holes and a pin to raise/lower the snubber. It often needs modification (shortening) to fit with stock springs and ride heights.
The better one has a screw adjustment.
