    With 14" springs with 650 spring rates= less preload on coilovers= butter smooth ride quality. Even more smoother with the adjusters dialing in the suspension ;)

    How old? Resis?

    Only concern is that they need rebuilt eventually?

    They are almost 1 year old. 25k miles. Icon recommends 50k mile rebuilds. I bought them for $979, not sure what I will ask yet. Standard travel, with resi. Rear: collapsed length - 14.85", extended - 24.2"

    DownSouth Motorsports just quoted me $115 each for rebuild.

    Hmmm. I probably want to do extended travel when I upgrade. Which means extended brake lines.

    Not really in the financial cards right now though. Just did the GB for Front Runner. Bought a Snugtop not long ago. Plus slow time of year for income.

    Go with the bilsteins... go with 5100's or better and either toytec or ome springs. Do yourself a favor and get a set of uca's too.

    Bilsteins are a very good shock with ome coils. King's are a better shock but about 3 times the price. Currently riding on king's.

    Nothing....just had a awesome deal from a good friend who was switching to long travel and the setup he had was the one I was going to get anyways....besides it came with the adjusters which was worth the money IMO.
