    Pretty much will be my set up too....I'm still trying to decide on which rear shock though. It's between the 5125 and 5160. I like the 5160 but I'm uncertain whether it will be long enough to get the proper droop from the Dakar leafs. Damn first world problems!

    Would be great to see pics of the red UCAs with blue coils (I have Kings too for install). I have MGM truck and seems like a lotta color.

    Curious do you know if his ball joint has the correct taper for FJs? The taper is different between them, while the taco one will fit they may or may not seat correctly

    Here it is. Make sure you find a tech that knows what he's doing

    I can't compare to before since I put the UCAs on before the lift, but it definitely drives straight

    Howdy, gang, I wanted to do my part and share my JBA experience. Two weeks ago, I ordered standard JBA arms to pair with Icon Extended Travel coilovers. JBA was very quick to confirm the order and ship out the arms. It was a good buying experience.

    Install was relatively easy (relative because every bolt on my truck is seized to all hell from four Northeastern winters). The truck initially drives great. I'll be going in for alignment later this week, and hitting the trail this weekend. I'll report back in after the trip. Here are the pics!
