    Alright guys, dumb question and I'm probably over thinking this. But with my spindles and Icon C/Os up front I'm sick of my bro lean. I do not have the C/Os dialed all the way down because I had some concerns about the Icon Tubular UCAs. My thinking is, since they are longer than stock, if I get rid of the preload on my shocks, I will not be able to get it aligned properly. Anyone think differently? Or how much preload can I leave on the shocks and still get proper alignment? I'm thinking decreasing the preload and combining with the Dakars with their aal (I currently have stock leafs with a pro comp 2" aal and Icon resi shocks), I can finally have a level truck again. Thoughts?

    You should be able to maintain alignment with no lift, and the UCA's. You may have more caster than stock, but that's not bad.

    Thanks Chris. Appreciate the help. So now once I get the new leafs, guess I'll just sit and play with the amount of preload.
