    I have the Icon pack and am happy with them. Not the best info here though as I have yet to put real weight on them and they are only 6 months old. I have done my fair share of wheeling and no squeak so far. Ride is quite smooth under no load but I also have DSC in the rear so I think the smoothness is coming from my adjustments. Hope this helps lol

    Edit* If I had to do it over though I would have gone heavy pack since I have plans on RTT, bed drawer system... After all the research I did I forgot I was purchasing DSC so with the stiff heavy pack I could have softened/stiffened it up with my shocks based on load. Probably regret going too soft with leaf's more than going too stiff IMO

    This does help a bunch. I also have DSC for the rear of my truck and was worried with upgrading to a beefier spring would affect me being able to use the adjustment properly. Thanks for the update.

    I also have the Icon RXT's. I added the "extra" leaf to get the most lift possible.

    I have a Decked system, camper shell, high clearance rear bumper with dual swingouts.

    The springs can support all of that fine, and don't have issues when I add another couple hundred pounds of camping gear.

    The Icon supposedly flex better than the Dakkars, but I haven't tried them.

    Great to know that you guys are liking the Icons. I wanted to stay with them since I already have the suspension by them and have been very pleased. Guess now it’s time to see if any deals pop up!

    Cleaning crew moves the chair to vacuum, then you don’t always get your chair back.

    Our cleaning crew only empties the trash, then maybe a mop/floor scrub once a month. I share an office with another fella and this space is locked when we're not here. Only 2 others have access to it, so I take out my own trash and we clean up any mess we make. I prefer it this way. We have some expensive equipment that we don't want fiddled with, so we limit the access.

    We are both on the same page. We share the space but have different roles, so I keep my side clean and he keeps his clean. Also, since we have separate roles, we don't have any reason to keep tabs on each other. It's working out pretty well. I was a little worried in the beginning since he's a newb and I've got 11 years in, but he's a good kid.

    Ridiculous! I can see people getting irritated though. I was in drive thru for about 20 minutes, once i reached speaker to order, i was told sandwiches were only available inside the store. Was told they wanted to serve people that have been waiting inside first.
