Has anyone RPGd their HOSS 3.0?

[Barny227]

This thread has been so helpful! Thank you to all that have posted.
I do have a couple of question that has popped up.
Is there any major difference besides height on the Foutz Motorsports collars and the RPG ones?
Do these collar lifts effect the amount of up travel that you can have?
Upper control arms are they a must, or a maybe?
How happy have you been with the RockJock swaybar?
Kind of wishing I hadn't of gone with the AC-Fab disconnects.

May I ask why the regret?

There are no real regrets!
I have just always wanted a RockJock Swaybar. The Ac-Fab disconnects work like they are supposed to and the quality is great.

Hmm I was going to offer to buy your setup if you wanted to take the rock jock leap but now I feel I would be best suited to go with the rock jock setup as well. More front flex, nothing to remove, adjustable and a solid reputation means it's not going anywhere either.

That is exactly where I am at too. Plus there are benefits to sometimes having a sway bar connected. I have to do a little more research on it before I make the leap.

So for the folks running RPG 3/2.25 do you all also install new UCA’s? I see some folks did and others didn’t, is there any consensus? I know you only net about 2.5” of lift with this setup from what I’ve read.

I didn't do new UCAs. No issues. I'm still very happy with my RPG collar lift.

That is exactly the set up that I am looking at doing. I have the same questions too.

I’m going to do UCA’s with my 2.25 up front. After alignment the insides of my front tires do touch the pavement. The camber adjustment on my alignment is at the limit, so UCA’s should bring me back in.

Its crazy how every vehicle is the same yet different. With my 2.25 F/R on my 23 2dr my alignment came in spot on (had it done at the dealer).

You have had collars for a while. I also had them for a short stint in my 2dr but did not get a chance to play in the dirt much at low or high speed, or flex off-road. Have you taken your offroad?

Yes I have - and I think they’re a very nice compromise. I’m either slow rolling rocky trails or fast on forest service roads. I’m not rock crawling so I can’t speak to that but flex in some pretty off camber spots was not an issue. I think going to 37s has a much bigger impact than people think.
