Installed RPG Offroad Collar

[Yukon Joe]

Soon tempted to do this....but WOW is it a lot of work to get the shocks out. Shame they don't just come with a threaded body from the factory where you could run the nut up or down to adjust the height. I had that on a jeep a few years ago and it made this job so much simpler....
Or wish I lived closer to your shop, cause $150 is a GREAT price to have them installed...

You're in NJ? I'm sure @khcdave can do it for you. They are a reputable shop and an FRF supporting vendor.

Thank you for your buisness,

I had the RPG Collars in my hands last week and they are very nice. Build quality is top notch.

Can we get some more before and after installation pics? I'm trying to decide...

I may have missed it, but would really like to see some details on the install using just spring compressor with shock on the truck.

I may be an idiot but ir seems to me that if we use a floor jack under the front arm, we can compress the spring quite a bit before using the spring compressors. Then we can lower the jack aftee the compressors are in place and it should give us plenty of room to add the RPG collars.
Just my two cents,
Tone

I did not before, however I just gave it a look. I see I was correct about using the lower a arm and the weight of the truck to help with the compression. I have posted a link to the video.

I tried it all different kinda of ways I couldn't get the spring to compress enough to install the collar. I had to end up removing the shock but if anyone else does please post a video I have a few friends that want to do it but don't want to pull shock out!
