Is it possible to run 2 extra upper iso's and 1 extra lower?

or would that be unsafe?

if you can, that would equate to roughly 1.5" of lift correct?

Anything is possible
Easy enough to run two uppers and I have ran two lowers before so........ :wink: I would do some kind of bump stop to make sure they would stay on the bottom, mine never moved in several thousand miles but you never know

The amount of money you are going to spend on those isolators you would be over half way to a pair of OME rear coils,depending on the area you'd be about at the same cost as a pair of rear OME coils.

Yeah they jacked the price up pretty good here for the upper isolators,there like $22 each now and the lowers are even more expensive.

This summer I bought my uppers for $13 each, so $26 for a pair. Then I didn't use them (but I may yet!).

Once I drove 3 hours to do my lift and realized they were at home on the workbench, I said F it.

a while back All-J's had a 'trim packer' - about ~1/2" poly donut for the rear suspension.
might give them a call and see if they still have them.
