so has anyone tried to snip the little rubber nipples off the spring side of the iso that actually makes contact with the spring (or they're supposed to when they are used as the only upper iso).... i just thought the two extra ones im gonna add above my stock ones might sit a little more flush and stack better on top if i smooth them out a little bit. ill leave them on the stock one for the retention purposes...... just a thought........

They work just fine the way they are. No problems at all with them sitting where they should and staying there. :wink:

Still kind of on topic...

What is the maximum number of rear upper isolaters to use safely?

Ended up ordering them new.
All three sites seem to be exactly the same.
The sites call them "Spring insulator, liberty, upper"
So, two Isolators plus shipping came out to be:
http://www.chryslerpartsdirect.com $29.30
http://www.wholesalemopar.com $29.24
http://www.moparpartsamerica.com $28.55

I ordered them from Chrysler parts direct, because that's where I got them last time, I didn't feel like making a new account to save $0.75.

*A note about http://www.chryslerpartsdirect.com - They charge you shipping after they send them out, so if you want to know exactly what you're paying use one of the other sites.

Each one was like 9$ plus shipping. So the total came out to ~30$ for two.
Since you were paying for shipping already you got a good deal.

Oh, haha, I would've cried if each one was 30$ !
Thats 120$ for about an inch of lift in the rear, lol.
