Ground control weight jacks

Hi everyone. I had a question regarding the spring isolator when installing ground control weight jacks. Does the isolator go on top of the weight Jack or in between the spring the weightjack. I'm thinking on top of the weightjack just want to get someone else's opinion.

Slit a piece of rubber hose and put it around the base of the jack.

I don't use one at all and its quiet

No spring isolator on the front with the GC weight jacks.
Re-use the upper spring block on the rear.

Call Donovan at Ground Control if you have questions. He is their 3rd gen F body guy.
