    I know this won't be popular, but I am going to ditch my Icon coilovers and go back to original ride height. I am assuming I will have to buy a complete assembled strut with springs and not just the struts? I am pretty dense when it comes to suspension so not sure what is going to be the best/easiest way to do this. 2007 dbl cab, long box sport. Does anyone have any suggestions for a simple swap out?

    Thanks for the help.


    And before anyone asks why...the Icons are in need of a rebuild and the lift has been hard on upper ball joints, wheel bearings and front axles. I want a driver that will continue another 100,000 miles with as little maintenance as possible and returning to stock height is going to put a lot less stress on my front end parts. I plan to ship off the Icons for a rebuild (if possible, my previous set of Donahoe's were too far gone to save) and then sell them.

    You should be able to pickup a complete set of previously owned OEM take offs fairly cheap. There are people here who will offer a trade.
