    Notice much on power difference? I'm hoping the load c 285 nitto g2 feels the same as stock since they're basically the same weight in the off-road

    Looks great. This is just what I want to install. Who did you get it from? I have been looking at the icon site at these.

    Its been great ! It rides alot better then stock , it has that firm truck feel. It's a great lift , i want to call Icon and see how much more i can go on the coil adjustment they said Originally 1 3/4" of the threads showing and that's where i am at but i would like to see if i can get a 1/4 " more lift in front. Just want to have a slight rake to it.

    This is the exact kit I was planning on getting. I went to a shop to get a quote, and they quoted $4k for lift and install. No rims and tires. Seemed WAY to high. The kit is around $2600. That's $1400 worth of labor? I think not.

    The reason the quote was so high was, the ICONS didn't have instructions online that stated how long installation takes. So that was their rough estimate.

    My question to OP is, approx how long (hours) did it take them to do the lift? I'd like to channel this info up to get a lower quote.

    Thanks...sweet truck

    It took about 5 hours , That was with the stock wheels taken off and new wheels and tires put on the truck , new tires were already mounted, I paid 500 for install!
