    Im the odd duck in the group. Running BP-51's with medium dakars (started as HD dakars but I removed a leaf to drop them down to the medium setting). I was able to secure the whole HD kit with UCA's for a killer deal through work. I had a balljoint get loose at ~4k miles which ARB quickly sent out a new one.At about 15k miles now with no issues. I have dialed the ride in to where in my opinion it rides better than stock while feeling more repsonsive on rough roads. It has handled all the loads I have put on it. The rear leafs have sagged a fair bit and I dont run really any weight in the back. They do not however make any noise. I greased them on install on the pads and they have been silent ever since. Overall I am very pleased with this setup.

    I have 6112/5160 combo, but front left at stock height. The ride is excellent for over 2 years.
    I wanted more bed capacity and put Deaver Exp stage 1 springs in rear. I had no clue what 2 inch lift really brings. With empty bed, it measures close to max 5160 travel and I had mid 20 mph vibration. With load of 400lb, no vibration at all as bed to ground sunk about 3/4 inch. The Deavers ride very nice but I didn’t want to shim. I put less lift Icon springs on and have no vibration.
    I’ve got a set of Deaver stage1 with a thousand miles on ‘‘em if you want to raise that rear. :)
