    What heights do you have your icons set at? Sorry if this is already posted somewhere else in your thread

    They are at about 3", maybe a little lower.

    Nice! It looks like it sits perfectly! I keep telling myself I don't need new shocks (which I don't), but I can't help but think about maybe going with a full Icon set up in the future. Yours are extended travel correct?

    Yes, extended travel. The Icons have been awesome, but I would have kept my OME stuff longer if i had 886's for the extra weight. I could have swapped the coils, but I had some extra money and it was an excuse to get the Icons. :)

    Sweet, so there's nothing you really need to do extra with your suspension when going extended travel correct? It's just a matter of getting the shocks, unlike going long travel.

    Pretty much, other than extended brake lines and other little things. Removing sway bar, etc. It's all a matter of preference.

    Awesome, I've got my sway bar removed I guess I'll just need the extended brake lines if I go extended travel

    Just need rears, the fronts are good to go although I might get some stainless ones up there just for pedal feel.

    Nice ride and a sweet build thread. I seen in one picture you were in Lakeview OR. Do you have Family there? I went to High School there.

    I have a friend that lives there, but that pic was just of us driving through on our way back for Moab in May.

    Heading out to Moab in the morning. Got almost everything done that I wanted to, most importantly onboard air. My buddy helped me out a lot with fabbing up an under hood mount and @Chux also gave me some tips.

    Here are a couple gratuitous pics.

    Howdy,

    I have been lurking around your build for awhile and I am using it as the inspiration for my own build. I like how capable it looks without being showy - perfect balance IMHO. Anyhow, looks are the least of my worries. I have spent the last month pounding my brain with learning about lifts, suspensions, geometry, etc. I am fairly set on an ICON stage one lift with new UCAs. I am very concerned about maintaining proper geometry and not wrecking the crap out of my new 2015 truck...lol My question to you is this: with your lift, which is about 3", do you have any issues with your CV joints? I keep reading about lifts over 1.5 inches resulting in CV joint issues due to increased angle.

    Thanks!
    Sean

    Thanks! I haven't had one issue with my CV's and I've wheeled the crap out of my truck. Do it! :)

    They have done really well, but I'm going with a taller tire next time. That little bit of extra clearance is nice but with bigger tires comes different issues.
