    I do like the delta joints from icon, but I had pretty bad luck with some of their hard parts a few years ago.

    Don't say it too loud in here, but Icon is doo doo. If you're wheeling hard go uniball, but SPC are good to go. I'd go Total Chaos if I were to go uniball. Icon has so much hype, I swear it's because all their stuff is black. Looks cool, but that's about it.

    Its my daily, so I won't really be beating on it. I've always been a huge fan of the range of motion you get from a uniball. But yeah, they can be a pain to service. 99% likely, I'll go with a Moog balljoint and call it a day.

    Their new shocks are a huge improvement over their old stuff, for sure.

    I disagree. There's their valving issues, then the terrible shock and top hat design

    The same design is still in place, and it's a weak point that's been known about for a long time. And still they haven't corrected it. Their service time is long due to it.

    Exactly the access cabs have "long bed" but It is the same frame as a DCSB.

    Im really impressed with it for the price, I has got to start gaining more and more popularity in the near future. The ride is less harsh than i remember from when I had a Bilstein setup.

    eventually I may beef up the suspension but this will hold me over for a while
