SSE and Body Mods

I'm having problems I've never seen before. I'm new to SSE and Vortex but have been modding Skyrim for years. I'm currently using BHUNP body and BD-UUNP armor conversion. Nude body and SMP physics are working. I output the body in bodyslide and then do a batch build on all the armor conversions from BD-UUNP. Everything looks fine in the Bodyslide preview but when I go in game, the armor conforms to the bodyslide setting but the underlying body reverts to some lower weight or another preset or whatever. Never had this problem with LE. I just want a decent body shape and armor that conforms to it. In game body morphs would be nice but I'll go with whatever. I understand a little clipping is going to occur with some of these armor conversions but this other thing is ridiculous and I don't know what's causing it. Any constructive advice or recommendation is welcome and thank you for your time.

Update - Going through the preview in Body slide I can clearly see that it is the BD-UNP armor conversion that doesn't quite fit the BHUNP body, particularly in the breast and upper arm areas. the upper arm clipping is tolerable but why would the breast of the underlying body not conform to the armor? Anyone have recommendations on UUNP body replacer and skimpy armor conversions that work together? I'm not new when it comes to this. I never had these kind of problems with LE.

In LE, BHUNP was always backward compatible with older UUNP armors. Maybe that's not the case now. Is there an older version of UUNP available besides BHUNP? Am I missing something?

Outputting everything through Bodyslide with the Zeroed Sliders preset seems to yield decent results in the chest area but the legs seem to shrink when donning a robe.....I guess I'l have to go with this until someone comes out with a better clothing/armor conversion.
