    I dont recall right now, i believe it was like 250-350, they dont have their prices up on the site but im sure they could tell you, the nice part is they are no longer produced by edelbrock and they are rebuilable, ill have some pic up on my build once i get out of class

    I have the icon 3 leaf aal with the fox 2.0's, I really like this setup. I had 5100's but with the 2inch lift in back I blew out a shock within a couple months.

    Ok guys ive made a decision on rear shocks.. im going with 2.0 icons..

    Im a little on the fence of getting a AAL or a complete leaf pack.I currentyl have TSB springs. I have a 200lb cap and about 100lbs of tools and such in the back at all times.I cant decided from the allpro, allpro expo or dakars. Which spring would work the best with 300lbs in the back? I would like to have a level ride, not a rake. I plan on running 285/75/16 nitto's on FJ TRD wheels.

    Allpro expos will be the best with 300lbs in the bed. I've heard good things about the dakars too but with 2 overload leafs, they seem to be ideal for slower speeds, while the expos will be smother at all speeds and flex hella good!

    on all pros site they recommend 5-600lbs in the back for expo's.. Will i have a stiff ride with only 300lbs? i also have a DCLB. My biddy recently installed regular all-pro's he got nearly 4" out of them. Im sure they will sag. I wanna be at 2.5-3 inches to keep the truck as level as possible. The truck isnt on rocks.. mostly rutted roads and beach almost everyday

    You might want to check measurements on those shocks/springs combo. I believe icons are ideal for up to 2" lift but anything more your loosing a ton of down travel???

    according to icon there for 0-3.. I installed them a few weeks ago in my friends truck.. the shits and giggles we put them on with stock leafs.. the shocks where to long to even get it on the mounts.. after we installed the all pro leaves i had to compress the shock about 5 inches to mount it.. that should be good enough..we will see

    ALL DONE!
    truck drives great..still need an alignment, but i have little to no driveline vibes. Only hicup was the tire place put the wheel weights on, and they hit my calipers. i took them off(there still about a pound of lead on the rim though.
