    No one's getting these yet? Wish I had the $$.

    This new rear system looks very similar to the raptor 3.0 system and is definitely badass!

    My order is placed. Sonny is super easy to deal with. I would suggest anyone who's interested in these get them before the GB is over and out of stock.

    As long as the Icon bump maintains the same geometry as the OE strike pad there should be no problem making it work with a flip kit. It may not be ideal, but I have had my bumps inverted for a couple years with zero issues (I do not jump the truck, but it does get it's share of high speed offroad use).

    Yeah, that might be fine for rubber bumps (like I have now) because the rubber is hitting the frame and it won't damage anything if it's off a little bit when articulating.

    These are real bumps and you don't want them striking the leaf pack unless it's a solid surface and large enough for the inconsistent strike zone.

    They are making special plates, I'm just wondering if they are ready yet.

    I get that. Just saying where there is will there is a way & trying to not stop people from getting these.

    There are other companies besides Icon out there selling the strike plates for this exact application as well.

    I can't find the dam post on the other forum to save my life. While asking over there if anyone remembered where it was I was told by a little bird TC is very very close to releasing them. If your looking for them I would call TC if I were you.

    No word as of yet from the boys at ICON....
    Most likely will not hear anything until after the new year...
    As soon as we hear something I will post it up...
    Thanks,

    You must have small tires and short shocks to run a bump that small.....those fully compress to like an inch right?

    I wonder if the strike plate was placed under the flip plate it would work? Are the strike plates flat or curved?
