Removing all Isolators
 
Ever since I installed my Pro-Kit there has been a little squeak from the rear...I have a buddy that offered me his new isolators cause he's not using any and it rides and sounds fine...plus it will drop it another 1/4 to 1/2 inch. I think I'm going to take my isolators out this weekend but I wanted to see if anyone else here is not using them.

Sort of a good idea
 
The guys at Steeda told me I could run without the isolators that thread over the top end of the coil springs, but running without the flat isolators that are over them would probably create a squeak.

Seems logical to me.

So I need to use the flat isolator that goes on top but not the one that fits like a sleeve around the 1st coil?

Looks like a plan
 
Thats right.

You'll still drop the car a quarter inch, or a bit less.

You might consider swapping out the used isolators for polyurethane versions, particularly if the oe versions are toast.

I have a buddy...RaginRoush, he posts here too, that took his out and has a set of unused poly ones...I'm gonna get those from him and do it that way. Thanks a lot for the info :D
