    Hey everybody I'm planning on buying my 2020 taco a 3in lift kit. But every website I checked doesnt seem to have the kits for it yet. Are they the same as the previous years? I was leaning towards gettin the Icon kit. Thanks

    Why are Icon always listed with Fox and King, not even in the same ballpark.

    King and Fox are linear valving while Icon are distinctly digressive. Many people like digressive shocks because of their on-road manners but they often come up a little short offroad in the same situations as their linear counterparts. Icon do not have the same build quality as King or Fox and you will see frequent complaints of leaking shocks and Icon customer service is pretty bad as well while King and Fox are among the best customer service. What Icon does excel at is marketing, they have a big marketing department and you will see a lot of nonsensical stuff like "patent pending" "20% increase" etc. I'm not saying Icon are bad, I'm just saying they aren't for everybody and you will pay a premium price for non-premium products.

    You can add ADS and Bilstein 8112 to your list of quality shocks to look at
