    The adjustable one is better. You can open it wide open for tires(200+psi) and then set it to 90-120 for air tools depending on the tools.

    Icons aren't bad. My dad liked his a lot. They have digressive valving though so they are a bit odd to tune and ride stiff on the road. The harder you go the softer they get. Some people like em. Other don't.

    We all know this...lol

    Think some foxes like mikes are 400...ish..idk. I'd shop around for sure. I'm going with some ads ones for Frank. Not sure on Igor yet. Probably kings to match the front.

    Aren't the icons your looking at only good for 0-2" lift? You are well over that..

    You're closer to 4" haha slight rake.

    A level tacoma means the rear is about 1" less lift out back then the front.

    You should measure to make sure you get the right shocks.

    So why do you guys carry air tanks instead of 12v compressors on a tank?

    CO2 is WAY faster.

    I can fill a 35x12.5r15 from 10psi to 32psi in about 28 seconds. Its faster then the Dual ARB compressor filling a 33x10.5r15 tire

    And is more reliable.

    Know where a loading ramp is? crawl up that with a rear tire. Mall crawl!

    Really though, probably a 9'' shock will be fine. give or take .5''. and 8.5'' is a big as you can go without extending the stock bumpstop. or relocating your shocks.

    Your gonna cut off your sliders???? How you gonna weld em back on?

    Ah yea..well best way is to pull the bed off to do the shocks. Unless you go outboard like I'm going too. But you'll have to run spacers to do that probably to clear the shock.

    It's not super hard, just time consuming and right tools. Took about a day to do mikes I think.
