is that the one that wraps around the bottom, or sits on top?

if its the wrap around on the bottom, nothing would happen, just be like a 1/4 inch lower maybe.

Possibility of noise, I would not personally recommend it but many do it.

In my 92, the noisewas terrible. Nothing like pulling into a lot with the guys around their cars and you squeak like a rusty wagon. I reinstalled them and cut about the first 2-1/2" off the top coil to get it down where I wanted it. Haven't put any springs on my 99 yet, but I'm guessing it would be a squeak-fest also without them.

I took mine out. They dont really squeak at all, but I bought some of that liquid rubber to put on the top and bottom of the springs mainly for rust purposes...

i put my stock spring back in for one more day since they sent me the wrong springs and i didnt put the isolators in and only made a noise on turns, but i would put them in. didnt really notice extra drop with out them and the noise gets annoying.
