    How do you like the bds lift? Do you wish you went with the coilover bds 6" lift?

    No complaints really so far. I may eventually go with coilovers but, I doubt it. What I have now works really well for me. I have extended bilstein 5100's for a 5" lift along with toytec springs so it puts me around 7" or so. Didnt use the big spacer that comes wit the basic kit. It was way cheaper this way and works really well.

    How's the ride stiff or like stock? Sorry for all the questions just can't make my mind up if I want to go with icon 3" co or a 6" lift.

    Im sure the Icon would probably "out do" my truck on road manors. My entire lift is basically pieced together so its far from the basic bds lift out of the box. I run no sway bar also..It sways in corners (top heavy) dives when braking hard. And wants to wander sometimes without the sway bar. Now, offroad its great..Most of what I do is slow and consist of rocks and inclines.

    With that said..theres a huge difference between 3" lifts and 6"+ lifts. I prefer drop brackets because you can gain you down travel back for a much smoother ride on and offroad. You always have the capabilities to retain better geometry in the front suspension vs a 3" lift that can potentially bind cv's and tie rod ends.

    Just my opinion! All depends on what you want out of your truck..

    Went to a darker gray decal. The old one was light gray, but looked completely white on MGM.

    The light gray was nice, and I kind of miss it, but the darker gray is a little more low key which is more my style :)
