Default Reuse or don't use isolator rings for front suspension upgrade?

Putting the Terrafirma 2" kit on on my 2001 LR and noticed I didn't get new isolator bushings (the rubber part) in the kit... Did they stop using these or are you expected to pry the rubber off the old ones and try to use them? This is the front by the way. The rubbers came for the back....

TIA
Chad

It depends on where you got the TF kit from, some sell it with the front isolators and others/most don't.

I don't reuse old isolators (front or rear), but that's just me. You need (2) RBC100111 and (8) lock nuts for the front.

The kit came with isolator rings... just not the rubber boot type like the original or the parts you referenced. I was just curious if the rubber boot was a separate part or not. It seems from research that it only comes as a single entitiy.... interesting. On a separate note, anyone have pics of where the Coil Spring Retention Plates mount? Lol.

TIA
