Spring Isolators

[00redGT]

I'm installing H&R SuperSports along with Prothane spring isolators. How much of the drop am I going to lose by installing these isolators vs.

1. stock isolators
2. no isolators

Thanks!

With those Prothane spring isolators you'll get a little less than 2 inches. More like a 1.75in drop.

You're losing at most 1/4" over stock rubber isolators. I notice you are saying, "Prothane"... it that different than Polyurethane like mine from Maximum Motorsports?

stock is 1/2 of isolator. you would have to measure the prothane and then you will know.

if you remove the isolators you will have noise. so buy different springs if you want more than 1.75.

"Prothane" is a company that makes urethane bushings, isolators, etc. I believe that is the same brand Maximum Motorsports sells.

Well, they're on the car. The stock isolators were crap and I'm glad I replaced them. I'm waiting on the springs to settle for a couple of days before I take the car in for an alignment. For those of you who say that springs don't settle, I'm calling BS. My car continued to drop a couple of days after installing H&R SuperSports with these isolators.

It's too bad I didn't buy the rest of the bushing kit to swap out while I had the car torn apart.
