Vendors: do you have Icon RXT’s in stock?

I’m not convinced these are in short supply everywhere but I’m getting tired of calling around. If you have these for second Gen please get in touch so I can surrender my credit card info.

 

No luck but it was worth a shot, thanks.

 

I just got some delivered from caliraisedoffroad last week

 

They JUST sold out. Damn.

 

What the fuck?

 

On their website it's $735.
I recently bought these from Headstrong Offroad.

 

Everyone is out including Headstrong.

I’m pretty sure one of the vendors I called was Rogue.

I just don’t understand the point of listing them for an absurd price, perhaps they think they’ll get an offer above retail because they’re scarce.

 

its probably so they don't have to go back in and redo their listing. If their sales software is setup to remove listings when sold out this just saves them some work on the back end.

 

I think I asked Headstrong only about the 6112’s last time around, I tried them again and they do have the Icon RXT’s, order placed. Now I have 2/3 of my suspension upgrade en route…

 

Glad they had it!
I'm going to try and install mines next weekend, along with the hammer hangers and extended brake lines.
You doing a full front and rear suspension upgrade?

 

Yep, bought 5160’s to install in the rear, but only going option 1 so just shy of a 2” lift. Hoping to be able to leave brake lines as is. In the front, the piece I’m waiting to find in stock is the 6112’s, will have them assembled at 4th setting, 600 lb coils, for 2.15” of lift. Will keep most of the factory rake, will need it when towing the boat to the ramp.

Hoping to be ok with stock UCAs.

 

I have limited suspension knowledge, but sounds like you should be okay with the original brake lines and stock UCA's. I have 2" in the rear now with my stock brake lines and it's been fine when flexing.
I'm going to try run option 2 on the RXT's and see how it goes. I tend to carry a bit more static load along with loading with gear in the bed on the weekends.

 

What rear shocks are you using and how’s the ride been?

 

I just got mine last week from off road warehouse they had them in-stock at my local store, there website shows they still have them in-stock

@memario1214 with Hotshot Offroad is the man to check with.

 

My current rear setup is the OME Nitrochargers with stock leafs + Headstrongs progressive AAL (overload left in). Ride is OK. It's a bit stiffer than stock with the AAL's. It doesn't jitter out on bumpy turns (like my stock 1st gen Tacoma does), but it does have a more jolting bump going over speeds bumps compared to the front (885's with Nitrochargers). I'll see how things change with the things I'm putting in.

 

You got a great deal locally, but shipping to me is $211! Good thing I found them with Headstrong already.

 

I did try him, no stock unfortunately.

 

Thought you bought the Icon RXT’s?

 

Yup, I did. I plan to install them next weekend. I'll keep my OME's though, until I can save for better shocks. I've been taking my time on planning the install since I'm still recovering from shoulder surgery.
I've had the AAL's for about 3 years now and want to try out a new system.
