    Not sure. I just ordered the 3 leaf from toytec. They say it will lift about 2 inches with overload spring removed.

    Absolutely nothing, even the one from Wheeler's is the same. And if you remove the overload you get about 1.5 inches and if you keep the overload in you get about 2 inches. Not sure why Toytec would say something different as I have the ICON with the overload in and netted about 2 inches.

    Just looked on Toytec's website and it is the exact same 3 Leaf Progressive AAL as the ICON, Headstrong, and Wheeler's so them saying 2.5 inches of lift with the overload in is total horse shit. You will get 2 inches with the overload in, and an 1.5 with the overload out.

    I assumed there’d be a difference 65CF7083-5E01-4F3C-855A-22FED5BA6308.jpg because of price and the brackets seen in pic of Icons that I haven’t seen in the others.

    ICON is more expensive as you are paying for the name. Buy the cheaper Wheeler's or Headstrong as it is exactly the same.

    yep pay extra for someone to just paint icon logo which will fade away and look like a wheeler AAL in less than a week. Wheeler or Headstrong.

    Thanks guys. And sorry for the icon owners.....

    After much back and forth, mostly second guessing every lift decision I thought I made because I read too many damn posts...

    Just ordered 885s with 5100s for all 4 corners with assembly from head strong and wheelers 3 leaf


    Had to make a purchase soon as stock Toyo’s are starting to look like slicks

    You'll be happy with that choice, I've been running that same setup for over a year now, couldn't be more pleased with it.

    Which works for me. After I put on my topper, and stuff, it should settle down to an inch or less.

    Did you have to add any leaf shims after install, or did you put any in with the initial install?
