2018 P1K5D. I was smart enough to install the front spring spacers.
I am not smart enough to figure out the steps for installing the rear spring spacers.
Please, can someone tell me the detailed step by step process for installing the rear spacers? Do not underestimate the value in adding/describing a step that even a moron should know or be able to figure out. Thanking in advance.

Russ.....thank you so much. I'm struggling with removing the rear shocks. I have been unable to relieve enough pressure on either of the shock bolts in order to remove them.

Take the tire off after you jack it up, that should help take the pressure off of it.

You might have to take a rubber mallet and give them a tap.

Russ....after building fence all week, I got around to the rear shock spacers today. Do you remember what inch ID the rear pipe is? For some reason the shop cut me pipe that is 2.5"ID. Is that correct?

Let me look in a minute, I’ll have an extra set of rear spacers on the bench in the garage.

Russ...got the spacers on a couple of weeks ago. My spacers are .75 in length. I forgot to measure the height increase prior to putting them on the rig. What length is yours and do you know the added height? Thanking you in advance.
If memory serves me right, you should gain double the spacer. So you .75 should have lifted your rig right under 1.5 inches.

My pipe was cut at .75 inches. If I were to do it over, I would prolly have em cut at 1 inch.

I had a friend cut mine at 1-1/8" on his lathe for the front and 1" for the rear. I had him cut extra so we can lift the P700 that we bought for the kids also.
