    so, I'd like to tell you all, guys, about the rolled over uppermount: it's the great solution to avoid the damage of ICON's uppermounts.
    Also, you will get "for free" 2 inches lift and keep the soft suspension.

    1000 miles already drove and I'm absolutely sure - it's more reliable for now.
    Also, for now, I have +2.5 inches lift and kept the forward suspension soft as if it had only +1 inch.

    Very interesting. Please keep us updated, good or bad. I may have to try this next time I have them off to rebuild. Also I have the donahoe racing (old version of ICON) that doesnt have the cutout on the top hat. Guessing that may be stronger.

    I don't know if it would make a difference or not but do you have std or ext travel? So essentially what you did was add a spacer above the co and it seems like I remember reading that there's something detrimental about that. Very creative and I'd like to hear how it works for you over the long term. And under off-road conditions
