    Are the Icon 2.0 Icon emulsion shocks worth the extra $100-130 more than the Billi's?
    I swappd out my stock Billi's for some projunk shocks, and it rides like crap with the Icon aal :(

    Your stock billies will give you the softest ride with the AAL. Is it a single leaf AAL? I've got the icon 2.0 and 3 leaf progressive AAL and it rides nice. The icons are higher quality build wise than the billies so cost is more. Do you have a double cab or carry a lot of weight in the bed because overall the icons will be stiffer ride as a daily driver.

    I have the ICON 3 leaf progressive aal.. and it's a double cab. I dont carry anything in back as a daily driver. But I do load my quad to hit the track every now and then. I do mostly street, but i do take it off trails.

    I love the ride of the truck since installing the progressive aal and the Icon 2.0's. The rear of the truck rides so much better and there seems to be zero body roll when pitching through a hard turn. Icon's up front also
