Leave the Isolators on the bottom of the spring and don't put the top ones in..... THey WILL NOT sqeak. Why should they. ON the top there is no pivoting and movement and the entire weight of you car is there....THat's bull****. We just put c-springs on Blackstampede's car and didn't put any on the top. I doesn't squeek. You need all the drop you can get with those springs anyway. C-springs are just too good of a deal.

I still wouldent take them out just to drop the car a little more since C Springs will settle after time and look really nice once they do.

There just a diffrent type of FMS springs, each type of spring is given an letter IE .. C to desinate how far it will drop your car and other specifications for that spring.

Yes they will settle after time but most people still agree that they could be a little lower even without isolators. It obviously is just taste....
