yea. I thought it would be worth asking. seems to me using one thicker polly ISO's would be better than 2 rubber thinner ISO

As hard as I try I can't stay away :roll: :lol:
NOT trying to be whatever name it was you called me before
BUT as a group we have hundreds of thousands of hours/months/years of knowledge here
Lots of things have been tried , some worked, some didn't.
When any of us say to use a certain thing its because its "PROVEN" to work and work well
so just go with what has been suggested and be happy with your ride

ok, I ordered it all.

Also bought those poly ISOs just to try to see if they fit. if not i wasted 10 bucks. If it does. it will be anohter option for people too. only reason I brought it up, I read a couple people having issues with stacked rubber oem ISO's sliding it and not holding up.

Only way for them ( the upper ones) to slide is if they are installed wrong
-OR-
they are using lower ones without a bumpstop .

3/8 of an inch
that's the reason for using 3- 1/8 inch conduit nuts

It'll hold. Mine are the same way. Remember, you get twice as much lift as the space between the clevis and the spring perch.

Unless you're more than 3/4" higher in the back you'll need to add height there as well.
