    If your set on icons spend the extra money and get the reservoirs, its worth it.

    Check @AccuTune Offroad they actually valve your shocks for your specific truck weight and needs. They might do a revalve for free if you aren’t happy with the ride.

    I’m going to call them soon to see about some 12in tears and revalving my kings up front.

    Icon is a digressive shock while kings and fox are progressive. Might want to research that a little.

    I think you should go for it, speaking from my own experience here. I had 886s and ome rear shocks with the HD dakars. It was rough an brutal, slapped on some Kings with 700lbs springs an rear Kings also way better ride but still a little to stiff for my liking. Traded the front Kings for icons w/ 700lbs springs an it rides like a dream to me.
    It’s a real plush and a softer ride which is weird cause the icons are digressive but that’s my .02 on it. Also I’d keep the 886s if you do get them when the time comes to get them rebuilt your trucks not down for a bit.
