Default 65 Bonnie ESPO spring isolators

Got all my springs in today, they came with 4 isolator pads.. do all 4 go in the rear, or 2 in the front and 2 in the rear? Putting the boat on the lift tomorrow and replacing every suspension part that I haven’t replaced already.

I don't recall seeing them on the front, but certainly could be. For sure the upper rear.

None in the front on either bottom or top of spring. Tough to align the spring in the locator cups with a big piece of rubber in the way. Isolator is only on the top of rear spring.

Only place I’ve seen them are rear upper. I’ve gone thru 2 sets from Ames. They develop big radial cracks in a couple years. I still have the 55 year old originals. Still supple. They’re going back in the car. Hopefully the Espo ones are better than Ames.
