HOSS 3.0 SVC Perch Collar for 37’s installed results

[SuperDaveTX]

I had one heck of a time finding the right build to meet personal requirements of fitting 37” shoes while keeping the HOSS 3.0 coilovers. I narrowed focus exclusively on coil perch lifts, as the good outweighed the bad for my use case. Of the main fabricators, I ended up going with SVC due to both the size of the lift being just right for a minimal pre-load, and the fact it’s a solid cylinder that fits over the central shock body. All is installed, and looks/rides great. It’s tighter as expected, but not to the point of being bouncy. Ended up going with Toyo R/T Trails, which look fantastic and ride nicely. Road noise wasn’t greatly impacted, but will provide an update after putting some more miles on them.

Cool, what size lift do they advertise and how much did you end up with? any pics of the collars?

+1 on the above and any rubbing?

@SuperDaveTX looks awesome and strongly considering this path too given the price point compared to others.
Do you happen to have more of side profile photo? I am trying to determine the rake on this setup.

2”/1.75” for F/R respectively

The driveway grade is a bit steep, so the rake is a little more pronounced, but the stance is good for me. Still has a slight rake to account for loading it down without squatting.

With side profile and collar pics…

No rubbing at full lock. Will be testing more in some dirt soon and can share results then.

Thank you! I have the RPG collars on my 23' 2dr Wildtrak. Advertised 2.25 F/R but only got about a 1.75" lift on each. Running RTR 17x9 +0, with 37" KO2's with no rubbing on/off road.

You and I both! End result looks great thank you for sharing. I spoke with SVC about fitting this exact setup but they only tested on the stock SAS wheels. I know the amount of research you probably went through to end up here. I am now at the point of deciding between SVC and RPG, and if I want to level or keep the rake. Your post was super informative and helpful, hopefully I can rest my ocd after this lol.

Edit: The reason I'm deciding between the rake or not is because of how I imagine the potential weight of the spare tire in the back and the occasional trunk load.

This thread is great and was much needed for me. Thanks

Any updates on your rides?

I am in the exact same position finally after about 3 months of researching....deciding between which of these two collars to go with and what's enough/too much/just right of a lift for what I want.

Here's the questions I'm left with:

There's an option to level the front by just installing a front collar and nothing in the back which would eliminate rake, but not be a true lift.
- Will doing that make any ride quality negatives less, i.e.... best option to maintain stock ride quality since lowest collar in front and nothing in rear?
- Will 37" tires fit with that setup?

What is the smallest front/rear collar combination that will fit 37's?

Does anyone plan on upgraded any other parts of their suspension to compensate for the collar's effects?

I'd also love to see a picture of a Wildtrack with collars installed on the stock 35" tires in case I don't want to upgrade to 37s just to see how it looked.

I looked at @SVCOFFROAD site for the Hoss 3.0 leveling but it says the front was lifted 2 1/16” in the footnotes which would definitely not level the vehicle. I’m thinking this is a mistake but when emailing them I did not get a clear response. I would like to use their kit but only if it’s a true level of around an inch.

Can you post a picture. Pretty close to combo I am considering

I ended up going with RPG 2.25 F / 1.5 R, 37s are already on (KO2s) and everything is great, but will need the clearance. Installation should be this week, results to follow.

What’s the spec/offset on your wheels? Any rubbing before the lift? I had 37’s on stock wheels before my lift with no rub while on pavement, though I feel it would rub Offroad.
