Icon rxt leaf question

How long did it take you to go from 2 to 1? Did you do it yourself?

 

No I had a shop do it. Just dont have the equipment readily available to me. But they charged me 250. 2.5 hrs of labor. Hence why I'm in no hurry to go back lol.

 

Just get @dcsleeper408 all jacked up on that Korean coffee and just take it over there lol

 

I thought about going to 2 and then riding with both spares... But I would probably feel like a tool driving on the street like that lol

 

Just put a tarp over it. Lmao

 

Lol really?!?! I figured that's a pretty common sight out in the desert... screw it.. you can be mac tools and I'll be snap on and we can just be high end tools...

 

No no no.. its gotta be an American flag

Heres a comparison of option 1(top) and 2(bottom)

 

Adjust the rear and adjust the front up some? You’d probably have to get another alignment though.

 

That's probably going to be the route I take.. when I get my 2nd spare, I'm going to go back to option 2.. if it's too much rake I have some adjustment on the coilovers that I could play with.. surely with the billet ucas with the heims I've got plenty of adjustment..a little more lift in the front should shift some weigh back to the rear right?

 

Adjusting the coils to compress the spring will lift the front to match the rear more. Compressing the spring does make the spring more stiff but I’m unsure if you will notice the ride being stiffer. I would test it before getting an alignment Incase you don’t like the ride. I think it all depends on what spring rate you picked for your coils. Like 600, 650, or 700 pound springs.

 

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think the 2.5 coilovers come with 600lb springs from the factory. It's not so much the visual part of it as it is the performance part. Hoping an expert will weigh in on this at some point lol

 

I have custom king 2.5 with 700 springs and they are awesome!! Off roading

 

That was one of my buddies motto when we went to the bars in college

 

Option 2 mo better...a bit of rake is beneficial!...says the stock guy
Truck looks great all de badged!

 

Hey guys. Thinking rxt as well. I have Icon stage 2 on right now. If I never put things in the bed of the truck, is it worth it to get the RXT and leave at option 1? Does it ride better than stock?

 

My search led to your post. Trying to decide between Deavers and Icons. I read you sold the Deavers. What are the Pros of the Icon over the Deavers?

 

what shackles are you running?

 

With all you guys on setting 3, does the leaf look like it doesnt belong there? The shorter leaf in the middle doesn't make sense to me. Icon says to place it between leaf 2 and 3... When the length of it clearly looks like it belongs between 3 and 4... Any idea?
