Icon Upgrade - Stage 2 on my Baja

So I am currently running the factory Bilsteins on my 2013 Baja. I have added the Toytec spring seat spacer up front for a total of 3” lift, and the Icon AAL in the rear. Tires are 285/70/17. Truck sits nice, but front seams to be sagging a bit, and I’d like to lift a little more. Not possible with the current setup.

I came across this guy selling Icon stage 2 shocks, and I can pick them up for $850. My question is, should I do it? From everything I’ve read Icons are an awesome setup. He says they have less than 30k on them, and never off road. I’m sure I can sell my stock Baja shocks for $500-$800 to someone.

Please post opinions and let me know if this upgrade is worth it, for added lift and ride quality.

 

I think you would be happy running this set up I ran it on my 08 with Camberg 4 inch lift spindles loved it! I’m currently selling the 2.5 Coilovers with fresh rebuild build info is in 3rd gen sale thread. ICON recommends rebuild at 40,000 miles for street use just an heads up. I paid 400 to rebuild my non Resi. So you could be looking at another 600-800 for rebuild on all four.

 

$850 for the front and rear shocks is a really good deal. If you do buy them it wouldn’t hurt to rebuild them before you install. 30-40k I believe is the Icon recommended service interval, depending on how hard they were used. I rebuilt my front Icon coilovers for about $300 ( dust seal, oil seal, piston o-ring, spherical bearings, spiralocks and shock oil.)
So you can potentially have four fresh rebuilt shock for around the same price as a new set of front Icon coilovers.
