    What size dimensions plate steel are you looking for Dain? The stuff that's usually thrown in the scrap pile is often bits that look like left over cookie dough. I've got a few pieces from 1/8th up to 1" but the thicker pieces are more like chunks than sheets lol.

    The gas station .3 Miles away is almost 80 cents more per gallon than it is 4 Miles away on a major route for me. Both are 76.

    I finally got the part numbers I need from icon, which for some stupid reason I couldn't order directly from them and after contacting 2 different vendors found out only authorized shock rebuild vendors can get them, I'm still on hold trying to figure out if I can get them from an authorized vendor whos trying to get them from icon.


    :bananadead::bananadead::bananadead::bananadead:


    Getting kicked in the nuts is quicker and less painful than this process has been dealing with ICON just to even get a reply to an email let alone a couple of washers and a top hat mount. :frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty:

    What parts are you trying to get? I had no issues getting parts for mine. But i went through @Icon_Adrian on here. Call up Downsouth Motorsports too and they will probably order whatever you need for you. They have done that in the past for me.

    I'm waiting to hear back from ORW on a price. They've sent a request ICON, but I'm guessing since it's the weekend they won't know anything until Monday.

    I thought the icon username here had been abandoned. Didn't even try contacting through here..

    He checks in like once a day or so it seems. Still replys to posts on here. I just sent him a message with what I needed and my phone number and he called within a day and had the parts on the way.

    metaltech4x4 (online) is another decent source for Icon parts too so might be worth trying them.

    but what ya needing? Ive got some random icon stuff in a box lol

    Sending them a pm now. I reached out to headstrong but since they dont service shocks, they couldn't get the topout washers or then top mount.

    Do you have the old Top out washer? if so measure it and call up polyperformance and see if the King 2.5 Topout washer is the same

    The top mount you meaning the Tacoma specific part (witht he three bolts for coil bucket) or the actual top cap that threads into the shock body? 2.0 or 2.5?

    edit beat me to it on the mounting plate thingy. I dont have one of those. Could always check if King's or Fox's measure out the same though. Only difference id imagine on them would be thickess and possibly the width of the channel for the eye

    See above. :typing: :D


    I also need new spherical joints at both ends of each coilover and the spiral clips. 2.5 IR non extended travel, which icon now is telling me I can't make them ext travel by removing the internal spacer or rather, they're not designed to do that. I'm about to just buy some kings or ads at this point.

    If you dont need the misalignment spacers its probably cheaper to source your own stuff than buy the "kit" from icon. Its COM10T bearings top and bottom. The spirolox...just add them to your order for anything else you need icon wise.

    They probably think you were asking to just take out the spacer and run it with no spacer at all. The extended travel still has a spacer it is just like half the length of the standard travel one. If someone with them was needing a rebuild soon you could just measure it and have Jim make one real fast.

    Yeah I was planning to just cut it in half. On side is already about 3/8" shorter than the other. Do you know if the spirolox can be replaced by c clips? I'm thinking I'd just need the right diameter and thickness to keep everything tightly held together.
