nice... but they are not doing much good sitting on the floor

 

Shhhh!

I'm a good 120mi away from them right now being at school... They came in yesterday so I had my lil bro take a pic so I could get them up on here as a teaser!

 

nice, put em on silly

 

That's where I'm goin at ike 1:30p today! I should be starting the coil install around 4 or so.. I'll be sure to take lots of pics.. Might even make up a how to in detail on it, even though someone already has a similar one.. why not? lol

 

lucky.. illl be doing this soon to my superlift :)

 

Ill by me a set and weld them on somehow

 

Sweet!

 

bump!


So uh.....what kind of coil compressors did you guys use when installing new coils in your RCD'd trucks????

Should probably bump those 12 other RCD spring threads you got. lol.

 

Found a compressor.. baxter auto parts had it.. cost me $50 though and it's not refundable.. yet...

I'll hopefully get it all done by tonight!!!

 

i want 750s

 

So trevor....update?? lol.

 

So I had to grind down the lil grabber things on the compressor to make them fit on the RCD coils and that went well.... So I put em on, impacted the bolts evenly and got to a point where I had to back them off to relocate them so they would compress the coil more. So I backed them off and somehow the angle on the grabbers bent the bolt, and wouldn't allow it to spin in the collar on the grabber..

Had to drive back to my house and have my neighbor torch them off... So I put them back on and said screw it. I think I'd rather pay someone to do it. It's probably the biggest b!tch there is to do on the RCD.. God Damnit

 

That's my plan. I'm not even gonna try pissin around with em.

Get some pics of the grindage.

 

The only thing I can take a pic of is the fukced up coil compressor lol... and the hypercoils that are still sittin in my truck on the floor of the passenger side lol

 

haha.. ouch, Ya know Trev.. I hate to say it.. but I almost knew that woulda happened

MUCH easier to just go with the guy in a shop using those handy hydraulic compressor's made for that stuff.. I watched my buddy try it on some 750's and whew... If I wasn't busy sweating trying to get them to fit with him, I would have been laughing at the idiocy of how hard it really was

 

there to dangerous to do your self i have seen coils fly across a shop while compressing them and it was scarry and they dented the concrete wall so imagine what they would do to you.

 

Whered you buy them from, im looking for a set now
