    I need your opinions. I'm getting ready to lift my truck, what do you think about 5100's all around with icon expansion pack in the rear

    Not bad, just make sure you get the 5100s that are for a 3-4" lift. If you have the money, I would strongly suggest getting an adjustable coilover kit instead of the 5100s in the front.

    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    Save a few bucks and get the wheeler 3 pack. 50 bucks cheaper for the sane basic thing. Also with just an expansion pack you won't need the long shocks Slimwood Shady was talking about. They will get destroyed quickly since they will bottom out...go with the regular 0-2" lift billies in the rear.

    Downsouth motor sports has the best prices on bilstein BTW.

    Also highly recommend a 2.5" coilover over 5100s as mentioned.

    :facepalm: they make the same damn shock, one for 1-2 that works with no lift, and one for 3-4 that works well on lifted applications.....they won't bottom out at all..it is only a 2" difference....smh....use the search button brother! You must still be hung over...

    Yes...IIRC Jay blew out 2 of them....I know it says there may need some bump stop modification, but I am damn confident there doesn't need to be....
