    They do sell it that way. But that Doesn't mean its the good way. 5100 set at 1.75 will ride good and be where you want it. And that is correct about the 2.5 setting, it is a bit stiffer ride, but you can fix the down travel issue with a uniball upper arm.

    I spent a lot of time researching the other lift routes before going with Icons. If you don't have all the cash to spend IMO billy's all around are a great route, at least that's the general consensus from everyone. I was concerned about having limited down travel and in the end I decided to spend more $$ on my setup although I think you will be fine. enough people on here are running them.

    Nice man and thanks! :D SDHQ was extremely helpful feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

    Prerunner's still awesome. my buddy's taken his up to flag a bunch of times already, pretty impressive what you can do with a 2wd.
