    Im looking at getting the Icon Rtx Leaf springs since the All-Pro off road Expedition springs (600 lb rating) gave out after only 20k miles. Any companies you'd recomend getting these from? Any sales anyone knows of currently?

    I'm in Florida if that makes any difference.

    Edit: a lot of people saying Deaver. Any place recomended for acquiring them? Also, if im usually at right 450lbs normally, and when I go camping im right at 600, should I opt for the 600lb set or the set rated higher? Im not sure if thst 600lbs rating is designed to be ok if you go over 600, or if that's just wjat its designed to hold regularly. I got the 600lb set of all-pro and im not sure if the problem was being right at the limit or if they were just a bad set.

    I've had icon rxt option 2 for two years, 25k~ miles, I am usually right around 2-300 pounds in the bed but that's not constant and can be anywhere from 100 to 1200lbs. My truck never stays at one weight since I daily drive it, use it for work, and take it on adventures.

    Two years later they still sit at +1" over stock when loaded with a few hundred pounds, when unloaded they go up to about +2" over stock, and the times I push it over 1000lbs I usually have about an 1" of space between my bumpstops (I have Perry Parts stops that sit higher than stock stops). Besides squeaking after blasting down gravel roads I have been very happy with the Icons.

    Though the second they start to sag I am going to Deaver or custom Alcan. It seems like if you can afford it Deaver or Alcan are the best, but Icon is a great budget choice.

    I’ve had the Icon AAL for a couple years now, probably 50K miles on them, and I’ve been very happy.

    I like my Icons for the money, but I’ll be getting Deavers at some point. I personally think the Icons don’t ride the best.

    Here’s my hot take. Deavers are exceptional, but also exceptionally expensive for a set of leaf springs. I recently upgraded to the iron man HD leaf pack and they are stellar. I doubt I would notice a difference if I had gone for deavers at almost quadruple the price.

    Nothing wrong with icon rxt's. If you have the funds I would pick Deaver's as they're well known to be some of the best on the market.
