    Updated the leaf springs today. Picked up a set of used Icon RXTs from a fella. Many thanks to @Brian422 for the install assist!

    The truck is looking good! :thumbsup:

    I’m gonna have to upgrade from the Icon AAL to a full pack at some point as well.

    The ride home honestly felt like a different truck. Everything feels way smoother and she takes any bumps and potholes on the interstate like they’re nothin. 3 miles on forest road corrugations were no problem either. I’m stoked.

    That’s awesome. I never considered getting them to improve the ride, just to keep my truck from being overloaded and sag as my AAL starts to age.

    Finally replaced some broken plastics on the KLX, and decided to slap some of the stickers I ended up collecting on to give it a little more personality. Getting loaded up soon for a trip up to the Big Frog Loop in North GA this weekend. Stay tuned for hopefully some awesome pics and maybe even some video!

    I finally made it to the end of this school year and the start of summer. Lemme tell you what, I didn’t waste any time making my escape. Feeling much better these days. Here’s a photo dump as an update.
