Army Green thread: let’s keep it green!

Thanks! I dunno tho, I already want a bigger set... It's a sickness I tell you.

 

OMG. Looks amazing!

I might have to bite the bullet and run a top plate spacer and a block in the back and get some bigger tires too.

 

Do it...

 

I hope you guys got a chance to hike the lighthouse trail

 

I love this green color! I might paint mine that color!

 

Thank you. That is super helpful.

 

How do the Icon AAL handle a load? I'm looking for options that will give me ~1-1.5" of lift without getting rid of the Fox shocks and that won't squat when I've got a box full of camping/fishing gear (and ideally won't ride like a gravel truck when I'm empty).

 

Installed a Garmin Dashcam Mini today. Quick and easy install and set up with the mirror power adapter

$33 Dongar Dashcam Power Adapter (12-pin for '15-'23 Toyota Tacoma. Also Compatible with Select Sienna, Honda, and More), Connects to Rearview Mirror, Built-in USB Power Source, Easy to Install

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DMW3DML I was amazed at how small the camera is - hidden behind the rear view mirror.

 

I need to get one of these..and one for the rear.. do they make a front/rear model?

 

I don't think they do. They have one that records front and inside the cab.

 

Only if it is a trd pro

 

Want to second this. I've now got a constant 300ish pound load in the bed and would love to bring a touch of help to the rear leafs to otherwise maintain the factory "level" look and Fox ride quality.

 

I haven't really loaded up the bed with much of anything just yet so can't say one way or the other on how well it'll hold. I can say I got anywhere from 1.5 to 2 inches of lift and yet it still rides factory with no real sagging with what weight does go in the bed or during quick acceleration. And like I said on the norm with a relatively empty bed, it rides good. Maybe a little soft even I guess. I would like to upgrade later on down the road to the Icon RXT.

 

How was the AAL install with the Pro rear leafs? From what I understand, the Pro has 4 leafs vs. the standard Taco's 3. There isn't a ton of info on AAL kits on the Pro, would love to hear more about the kit you selected and how it works with the Fox shocks.

Cheers!

 

Thanks for the info ! Curious if you used or recommend a pinion shim, or carrier bearing drop with the Icon pack?

I can't quite remember but I'm pretty sure the PRO models still has the same amount of leafs as the other models. I had just installed the same Icon AAL on my friends 2020 sport. Install is not too bad on these Icon AALs. With the right tools they go in pretty quick. I did have to cut off a stock rear bracket to fit the AAL but that's probably the biggest hang up. I also left the small oem load bearing leaf on the bottom to get an extra .5 inch

The fox shocks work fine with the AAL. I've stretched them to full droop and drove over some bumpy dirt "whoops" with no problem.

The only main reason I selected the Icon Progressive AAL was the fact that I'll be switching to a full Icon suspension in the future. But truth be told, I'll probably switch out these leafs for the upgraded Icon RXT packs.

I can't say whether I'd recommend a shim or carrier bearing drop because I never needed one before. the lift is so small that I don't think it's necessary. But if you want to stay REALLY to stock angle specs then I can't see it hurting. \ooo/

 

Could you link me the spacer you went with?
