    Looking to install icon 2.5 with all pro uca soon. Is the diff drop needed? Also would the upgraded cv boots be needed as well?

    I have icons uca with the 2.5 on a 4Runner with no diff drop and it's been fine. Icon actually recommended not using a diff drop.

    Celica seats, Icon in rear and front with icon ucas, omd leaf springs, deckplate mod, lce header, Tundra brake swap.
    I would go with Icons recommendation . If you start ripping boots then you know its time to change something up.
