Thanks for the coments everyone!!

I did leave the rear isolators in....I think some cars you need to take them out to get an even drop and some you can just leave in there, but I just got lucky with mine and got an even drop all around. I think they ended up droping it about 2.25 in. all around.

Thanks again,

Brian
