    I’ve gotten mixed opinions from different shops... I’ve been told that if I go with the fox 2.0 all the way around with the icon AAL, it’ll be much higher in the back. Other shops have said that it would be pretty even. Can anybody weigh in on this? At this point, I’m pretty much set on the Fox 2.0, but now curious if I need/should get the icon AAL?

    Just finished mine today, with out touching the coils. I got 3” but it will settle a bit I’m guessing.

    That’s awesome! Did you add more height/ turns on the coils or just install straight out of the box?

    I have not adjusted them at all yet. I’m going to have the alignment shop crank them up a little bit tomorrow to get a little more height on the front and maybe a quarter inch of adjustment or so.

    I’m not sure yet, Muul in Issaquah said they charge 275 to do it so worst case scenario I go that route or my neighbor up the street said he could too but I don’t wanna bug him with it

    So I drove about 100 miles today to visit some friends and I am blown away by the suspension. It was such a smooth ride. So much better than stock. It was a little twitchy because it needs an alignment badly but it’s a whole new truck now. Definitely worth every penny I could only imagine how much the high-end fox or icon or king shocks feel compared to these 2.0

    Reviews here have praised kings, but said the icons are much more sensitive to bumps and stuff and not as smooth. That’s why I’m going the fox route.

    Yeah, I’ve heard nothing but good things about king I just can’t afford him in some of those other shocks as well but I’m very impressed with these for the price they’re selling at.

    Did you go with the standard JBA UCA or the High Caster ones? I was going to get a set of JBA's but was researching it first.. Your truck looks really great!

    I had the 2.0s before they were released to the market. Cranked them up to 3" and ran them for 40K miles. Here is a pic of the truck at 3" lift. Running Kings now, 285s and a whole lot more mods.
