Hi,
When I installed mine, I had to use a floor jack to bring the end of the shock up to the point where I could get the second bolt in place. I don't recall it being to difficult. This was on a F-53 with leveling jacks. I guess that I might have been able to use the leveling jacks to bring up that side of the RV to a point that the shock would fit without compressing it.
I know that the factory shocks came off without a problem. They compressed as easy as a accordion!
HAve fun camping!
