    I can say honestly, I've seen no legitimate complaints about king, ads, or fox until he pointed out you have to remove them to adjust them.

    Ome is budget friendly, but even their expensive top of the line has a short travel length. Icon has a reputation now (go find that thread). And after looking at multiple icon setups I don't like their design for the reservoir routing.

    I would take everyones opinion with a grain of salt though, and do your own research first. and then if you still want everyone advice/opinions go from there.

    As Justin just said everybody has an opinion. Yours is wrong, but that's ok. Just do your research.

    Planned on it. I thought this would give me a good idea of where to start. Although so far I've gotten scotty has a blue fetish, Warren sucks ass, and you have many regrets.

    As for the Icon's and reservoirs, I have been fine not having them. I don't think the off-roading we do is enough to need them. I understand the purpose and agree that keeping the fluid cool is important, just think they are a little overkill.

    @Sandytaco14 I hate that I suck ass because I just sent a pm that I got from headstrong telling you everything you want to know about shocks. If want to go the less expensive route with ome don't forget bilstein 6112 and 5160. :thumbsup:

    We had a BIG argument with a guy about OME so I think we are all trying to refrain as much as possible. I went OME strictly bc of the GB and I had just bought the truck and didn't have $2,500 to drop in suspension. Scotty does have a big blue fetish and would probably cuddle up to his kings at night if he could. haha and I haven't meet Warren yet....so I can't say if he sucks ass or swallows ass...YET. I don't necessarily regret buying OME this is my 2nd truck with it, there are pros and cons for sure. Although my first truck wasn't being built to a degree of the new one, the smart thing would have to be patience, save, and buy it right the first time. I personally will probably go fox.
