    Yup 3 of them. They are 55 watts each you'll have to make you own relay harness though. They have about a 5 foot section of wire on them currently.

    Amazing that I've had more than one member contact me about this. I'm almost embarrassed that i can not tell you what length I went with but I left this stuff up to the experts at SDHQ Offroad. I told them I had Dakar leafs and need shocks that will work with that type of lift for my truck.

    This is the label from the box that the shocks were in:

    Best I can do since I have no measurements. I'm sure if you contact SDHQ or DSM they can give you the specifics of those shocks

    It's a 10" travel shocks, which the normal one's are a 9", but these have a bit longer body as well. Tom got my last set, should have some back in next week.

    We are also having 2.5's with RR and 2.5 RR W/CDC's made for the 3" leaf guys as well. Should be in stock late next week as well. Give you all more option's without the wait of a custom build.

    Not to mention some custom "SDHQ" Deaver leaf packs!

    I'm looking at getting these too from SDHQ, But I'm thinking these lengths are going to require bump stop modification to keep from blowing the shock at full stuff. My Dakars stuffed at about 16".

    OP, truck looks great!

    Cycled fine our last install. Had about 1" of shaft left at full bump. Your axle cycles a bit forward at full bump. Body may look long, but the lower mount is below the axle. Your bump will contact before the shock bottoms out.

    If you had a U-bolt flip and no bumps, then maybe.

    Dude your trucks amazing. I'm kinda new to the whole truck scene. But from what I'm gathering here you went from a lift to mid travel type set up? Sorry if I'm wrong I'm just trying to find someone's setup i like and go with it to eliminate guess work on what i want.

    Ya I probably should have went for the full icon setup from the beginning. Wasted a few $ on the other shocks but only because I'm offroading way more than I ever thought I would. What I started with is fine for the street only truck but once you leave the street the Icons are amazing. Kings and Fox shocks would be another choice as they are as good or better than Icons. It's a personal choice there. It all comes down to what are your plans for the truck and how much money you have to spend on it.
    Thanks for the compliment on my truck!
