    So because you had an issue with your icons being most likely an easy fix and not winter prepping them you would rather run a strut and spring? Cool Beans.

    Unlike. That is the devil talking. I mean corporate greed talking, not American ingenuity, know-how, and gumption.

    WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?!?!?!

    I had them rebuilt by Icon and they leaked after 5k miles. I didnt want the hassle of taking them off, then having to ship them out to get fixed if the seals leaked prematurely.

    For you it probably isn't a big deal since you can just drive and have them fixed while you sit there, but to me its a pain in the ass that I neither want nor need.

    FWIW, Lauren didn't get hers for free. She said specifically her dad ordered them for her with her card.

    I have 883s, they're 590# instead of 500# like 880, 881, and 882. I had an Addicted Offroad tube on and now have the factory. I don't recall any drastic change from swapping them out.

    So when you go over a speed bump you don't feel like your bones are breaking?

    Sell it all for scrap.

    Not at all. But I also slow down for them like you're supposed to.

    They do everything I need and want them to. No issues. I have adjustable 5100's and don't have any complaints. I'm not launching, or wheeling too hard. I wanted a stiffer ride, with the lift and to replace the stock suspension, since my frame was new.

    As I said, they fit my needs.

    Big reasons I didnt go with those is no remote resi option and the 3 month waiting list.
    Fox have remote resi, can be easily re-valved and were avail in 1-2 weeks. plus they cost the exact same.
