    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    i honestly can't tell a huge difference between icon and stock rear shocks. coilovers are more important but i would skip reservoirs and compression adjustment unless this is somd baja racer or something. i would def go 2.5 in the rear though if you are spending the money.

    clickers aren't needed hit up DSM they have them a lot cheaper than that.

    All that extra crap is not needed right off the bat. Contact DSMS, headstrong, and wheelers to get your best price.

    I like the LRUCA's better personally. I get just as much front droop as a uniball and I have a ton of adjustments vs no adjustment.

    Why do you not want dakars or LR UCA's?

    The dakars for the very simple reason that i just really like the deavers lol. Lr uca i just wanted uniball because of the ext lenght coilover. But if your getting just as much drop with the LR i might have to rethink that.

    That's harsh. It's a great and reliable suspension. I don't do anything too intense - I definitely don't need long travel. If I had the money at the time would I consider Kings? Of course. But I have never regretted my decision. I've never felt the need for anything more. That's my experience. That won't be the same for everyone.

    I think I just happened to get a bad set? I have the "clank" over bumps. It doesn't seem to happen on all of them just a select few. Where the shock extends to fast and hits the ring inside that keeps them from extending to far. I rode in @justinalldredge19 truck and he had the same suspension and it didn't sound near as bad. I have just been very unhappy with that, other than that it's great on road...

    I am actually now considering radflo with a king coil. Mostly to be different, and to support a simi new US based company.
