Ride is awesome!! I used to have OME coils & shocks with TC UCA's before this lift and it was a terrible ride compared to the new setup.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

Its not hard, Will. If you can do the deck plate mod, you can swap out UCA's. It just takes a little bit longer.

do the icon's allow more travel than say the kings? same total lift amount but I now that the king coils are almost stock length which doesn't increase unloaded travel right?

I have extended travel coilovers and yes they travel more than stock and King CO's. You need aftermarket UCA's to run the extended travel CO's

Yes, the spindles relocate where the LCA's are mounted giving lift and more travel.

I like the lift, but you need bigger tires and less blingy rims.

The tires look small in the pic but they are 285/70/17 Coopers. And I have 4 inches up front. My suspension has settled a bit now and its probably .5" lower now than in the pics. I am thinking about swapping out my TC UCA's for Icon UCA's. They are adjustable and would work better with my setup. If anyone is interested in buying mine, they only have 7,000 miles on them and 95% highway.
