    I still need to extend my brake lines though since it got pretty tight with full droop but luckily the factory shocks will be the limiting factor. Once I get the new shocks with longer travel, I’ll definitely need to extend them

    Ok thanks for the clarification. They’re brand new and haven’t even settled yet. Option 2 will be my choice. I like to ride height comparison pics you posted. I’m on 1” blocks now myself.

    I just installed the RXT setup with option 3 on the leafs. After getting the truck off the jack stands and torquing everything, I had 1/4" difference in ride height between the driver and passenger side (25" driver, 24 3/4" passenger). Took it out for a test drive, and when I got back I had over an 1" difference. I started looking around and noticed the passenger side shock was compressed about an 1" more than the driver side. Pulled the passenger side off, reinstalled, took another drive and this time it was about an 1 1/4" difference. Any ideas on why the passenger side shock is more compressed?

    I can’t answer that.. but what shocks are you using?? If they are stock perhaps that may be it..

    No, they're the ICONs... Stage 8 so the 2.5 RXT shocks. Took over five months to get everything delivered, and now I'm having shock issues. Not all that happy with ICON now.

    I will. I'm hoping maybe they aren't charged enough or something simple like that. Fingers crossed.

    Apparently they just needed some miles on them... After putting around 600 miles on them, both sides in the rear are within a 1/2" sometimes, dead on others.

    So far, so good. I did Option 3 (all the leaves installed) and it's not as bad as I expected. I've only got about 300 lbs. in the bed now, so I expected it to be a lot stiffer.

    Ok cool. Factory bumps? Did you need to extend the brake lines? I’m thinking option 1 or 2 since typically don’t carry a load

    Factory bumps, but after a month or two, if I'm still happy with the kit I'll probably get the ICON hydraulic bump.
    I went heavy because I'm planning on even more weight in the future.

    I actually live in North Carolina now, but I'm working in Jacksonville. When I lived in Tallahassee, I took it out - bone stock - in the Apalachicola National Forest. That's the only place I remember.
