Ordered some energy suspension spring isolators (urethane) and they came with two peices ..one for the top of each spring..and then they came with two tube looking things..what are these? Best I can think of is that they slide over the bottom of the springs? Any Ideas? Bout to do the install now and need to know

They slide over the bottom coil, just like stock.

I need to change mine out from the stockers, but im afraid it will change the ride height too much.. Let me know if it changes your height at all!

Yeah, I have urethane isolators and they probably took a 1/4" away from the drop on my H&R SS springs. But my drop is still plenty low.
