    Still pretty impressed with how well the Icon Mini Pack flexes.

    I had the basic Icon gear installed on my truck. Coilovers and UCA's in the front, shocks and leaf pack in the rear. Left out the overload and waiting for the UCA's to loosen up but so far I like the ride quality better than stock. Gave it just enough lift for my tastes. Went one size taller tire and I am pleased with the way it came out.

    Wow, what is the complete suspension setup on that white taco? How is it on rough pavement road?

    Researching for rear lifts for about 500-600lbs of overland supplies with a shell, rack, RTT, etc. Was thinking of doing Icon stage 3 with UCAs but wasnt sure about the static load in the back for long hauls. I want to keep it lifted for clearance obviously and not sag too much. Would the AAL thatcomes with Icons (1.5" lift they say) with stock leafs be ok with the 500lbs of stuff or would it be better to go Dakar leaf pack and use the AAL on that leaf pack?

    You will want Dakars or other full pack. Although the Icon AAL performs great, you lose payload capacity.

    I think a few here have left their overload in and maintained tow capacity. Don't quote me on it though research it.

    Is it because you replace the overload leaf on the stock pack? What about leaving it in?

    I have been reading around and looks like the OME Dakars will be my best bet. Might need to compromise and leave it funny looking with the rears that high when its unloaded though vs the icon AAL with low capacity

    I just had the Icon Stage 6 installed with Dakar rear springs. Rides great.wife and I just noticed a quiet clicking sound from front differential. I have a feeling that it's the needle bearing. Any issues with running it until after the holidays before doing the repair?

    I have the dakars on mine with OME Sport shocks. After a long trip they shocks didn't really hold up. I know have Icon 2.5's and bumps in the rear with my dakars. Big diff over long fought roads loaded with gear and a RTT

    How much thread does everyone have showing on their front coils, and do you have the overload leaf in or out? and how does everything ride? I'm trying to get mine a little more level, still a bit of rake to it. I've got the stage 4 kit with AAL and overload in. Would removing the overload drop the back any?
