    I think that's just a factory leaf pack with the Icon AAL in it. As far as I know, Icon never made/offered any full leaf spring packs. Because of course you would want to spend nearly $5k on their "stage 7" suspension and only get an add-a-leaf.

    Are floor mats a mod?
    If you mean doing the Needles for the drivers side Shaft, recommend against just replacing the stock bearing, cause it'll just go bad too. Do the ECGS bushing swap. One and done for probably the life of your truck.

    What are you looking to change to? I am going to be looking to replace mine here soon too, still haven't decided between Dakar with extra leaf or All-Pro Expos. Depending on what you are getting maybe we can order at the same time and save some $ on shipping?

    Yeah, I think I am leaning towards Deavers at this point. I got a quote and it's just over 100 bucks more for Deavers than All-Pro's. They are spendy though so I am not too sure when I will order. Hopefully within a month or so. On another note...got rear ended yesterdayIMG_1686.jpgSo...Relentless high clearance or Pelfrey?

    Yeah, they quoted me 924+shipping. All pro is 799+shipping. Maybe we can see if they will give any discount if we order a couple?!?!:fingerscrossed:

    Turned on the Mariners game and almost thought I was watching football. Score was 18-7, I thought who got a touch down?

    As everyone has said, Deavers are nice but reeeeeal spendy. I don't do Baja or have LED bars, but FWIW, I've had the Dakar's with the extra leaf for 2.5 years (DD, no weight to heavy weight, frequent trails, good ride, good flex) and I honestly can't complain about a single thing. Oh, and they cost me around $350 bucks. Seems like a solid option to consider for 1/3 of the price :notsure:

    Yeah that does sounds like a solid option. I will definitely have to consider that with the price point. The "buy once cry once" part of me is saying go Deaver but the "holy shit, I could spend an extra 700 on something else" part of me says go Dakars... choices choices.

    Dakars.
    Extra leaf. Unlike others, mine still don't squeak after 5000 mi due me spreading red moly on every layer. We will see how long that lasts.
    Ride is good but I have 1400 extra pounds of armor and gear.
    2nd weekend of May I'm going to an event with friend from ARB. I'll see what small group buy I can get. No promises.
