    I would definitely suggest UCA’s but all trucks are different. Some do and some don’t. Alignment, room between UCA and tire, travel, etc... all play a factor. With an Icon suspension I would definitely recommend them.

    I used icon for my 2018. They have issues still with the springs not lifting to advertised height. There’s a thread I started about this. Might want to look at other brands. Some People including myself only got 1.8” at max recommended thread depth. Now they are making some people pay for 700lb springs to get the height they advertised.

    I have icon 2.5” coil overs with the cdc valve. I read that thread about the spring issues, but I got advertised height. They came with 1.5” thread showing, which gave me around 2” if lift. It was the same as the 6112s they replaced set at 1.9”. I also have a fab fours bumper and winch, so more weight up front.

    I raised them recently to have 2” of thread on drivers side and 1 5/8” on passenger side. Passenger side is still 1/4” higher overall.

    I also got the icon tubular ucas with the delta joint. Not sure if it was definitely needed for alignment, but I got it all on sale. I easily clear 285/70r18s on wheels with +25 offset.

    If you aren’t in a rush, what til Black Friday. They always have a really good sale.
