I was going to get in on the group buy for the Hyperpro shocks and somebody had mentioned that there might be some extra RPA adjusters for the rear shock out there, so that I don't have to take it off my shock and send it out there for it to be installed on the new shock. If there are none available, how do I remove this from my shock?

There is a tool available to hold the tension on the spring so the spring holder can be removed and the RPA inserted. I was lead to believe that you could get one for less than $40 or rent a spring compressor from an auto parts store. I have not done any research on either option.

Unfortunately I had decided a few weeks ago because there was not enough solid info on what the front shock looked like, I was going to pass on the group buy. The front shock that was posted originally and after repeated queries on the real shock design what was eventually posted is so far away from the OEM design I question it's validity.

I'm not an engineer but usually when you buy aftermarket stuff it closely resembles the OEM manufacture form and layout. The totally different look is a red flag that suggests something is not quite right to me.
