Part of the Prothane bushing kit I got of course includes F/R coil spring isolators. In doing research looking for install tips, it seems like a large number of folks swapping springs are removing the isolators without any detrimental NVH effects; and getting a mild drop from it. If mine are shot anyway, I'm thinking why not try running w/o for a bit, before replacing them.
On that note, I'm wondering if it's possible to just use a spring compressor to pinch the springs enough to remove the isolators, without disconnecting control arms, etc. Thoughts?
