    I am looking at a leaf replacement for a good 2-3 lift. I don't tow or carry often but on occasion Ill tow or throw my CBR 1000 in the back. I'm looking at the Expos but afraid it'll sit too high when not loaded. I'm planning on Icons up front with about 2.5" lift.

    do you have a first gen or a second gen?

    unloaded you'll get 4-4.5" of lift.

    In my 1st gen, I got 4.5" unloaded. if you don't carry weight often, you should go with the standards.

    but FWIW, even unloaded the ride actually isnt that bad, and they flex great

    2nd gen. It'll be unloaded 95% of the time. But I will throw my bike in the back (~450 lbs) once in awhile on a long haul...

    With the 2.5" lift up front would it look weird?

    PM or check the build threads for Nofords08 or Greekboy12295 . Nofords had expos for a while with some weight in the bed, and greekboy is also running expos with no weight in the bed.
