    Just want to give a huge shout out to @GHOST SHIP for a killer install of my Icon RXT leaf pack and my U-bolt flip with Wheelers Superbumps. As always, Sergio did a killer job. Made it look easy! Thanks again

    Hello nice setup! How does the rear ride compared to the stock leafs? Thinking about going that route in the rear...

    Looks great man! I installed the Icon leaf pack a week ago. They are SO much better than factory leafs. the ride is way softer and the suspension flex is so much more now

    So an update on this thread. So after 6 months the rear settled lower than I wanted. But not too big of a deal with the RXT leaf packs. I went back to @GHOST SHIP and Sergio installed the additional leaf that took me from stage 1 to stage 3. He also lifted the front to match. The lift and stance is perfect for me now, exactly what I was looking for. I’ll post more pics after a wash

    Have you loaded up the back with some weight or did any towing? If so, Any comment on sag or performance loaded up off road or on?

    I have not yet. Rides nice and smooth without any weight. Not super stiff at all.

    2" Rear shock or 2.5" I can't tell from the picture. I don't recall if the RXT is offered in a 2". Also do the drive quality/feel change when you aded the extra Leaf or was it just height? Icon says it will haul more in stage three just curious what your thoughts are. Thanks!

    I am running the 2.0 shock. The ride is still pretty smooth, a little stiffer but nothing crazy. Have not put any weight in it yet.

    On option #1 you were initially getting about 2" of rear lift but it settled. Then you jumped directly to option #3? Any reason you did not try option #2 first? I'm running the ICON RXT leaf pack with the Fox 2.5 Tundra rear shocks and I'm seeing about 2.75" to 3" of lift on my 3rd gen. I'm hoping it settles to the 2.25" as per ICON's documentation.

    How much did it settle on option #1?

    I was going to go to option 2, but when I took it to @GHOST SHIP, he recommended to go straight to option 3. I went off of his recommendation as he had installed a bunch of these. I didn’t want to have to rip my rear suspension off an pay that labor a third time. I couldn’t give exact numbers on how much option 1 settled, but it was quite a bit.

    Is the stage 3 designed to carry more load and provide lift?
