I use those polyeruthane isolators from ES.... look thru their online catalog, perfect for the upper isolator and works well as a lower isolator....You can also contact Courtesy Nissan....

do you have the part numbers for those? I checked the energy suspension site and they don't have anything even close to fit a 5.5 gen

It's universal p/n 9.6112 style E, perfect for the top but will work on the bottom as well.

ok, but those are not made for the top, only the bottom of the spring, there is a large rubber donut that is used for the top isolator.

They are big enough that they actually fit better than the OEM top isolator....I'm using them on both ends....my ride, my choice, it's been like that for 3 yrs.....and I'll never wear them out.....

I have Vogtland springs and there would be almost no way to slide that type of isolator on the top of the spring based on the design.

I know that my old Maxspeeds would have worked with these.

What about the style A?

They seem to be a good match and www.suspension.com states 9.6114 is used on may Nissan cars. I don't know the actual measurements of the Max, so can't confirm...
