Has anyone installed the ICON SXT leafs 51101 (lets see pictures and hear feedback)

I am interested in what settings you chose and what kind of weight you carry. Finally I would like to see pictures and hear feedback.

I have a new set uninstalled sitting in my garage and I am trying to determine which setting to go with. I have a leer cap on the back and typically only carry another 50 pounds of gear, so somewhere around 250 pounds.

I'm thinking option 2 may make the most sense but I'm also curious if anyone is running option 1 with a cap, if you are is it sagging, if so how much?

I searched and could not find much info here on these.

 

Well I installed mine today using option 2 because of the Cap and added weight. It has not had enough time to settle but I am sitting at 23 1/4" drivers rear and 23 7/8" passenger rear (center hub to fender). My OEM leafs are shot so there's no way of knowing how much lift i got over stock.

 

Looks good. How's the ride? Have you done anything up front?

 

Thanks, It rides good, the back is a little stiffer but I don't think it's a bad ride at all.
I have a small vibration at take off so I need to take some measurments and install some shims and/or carrier bearing spacers.

I have Bilstien 6112's up front the 2nd lowest setting.
Depending on how the rear settles I may go up one more level in the front.

 

I've got the RXT setup on my 2012. I either have a camper shell or RTT on the bed, so there's always some weight back there. I intentionally went with Option 1, without the add-a-leaf and the rear was pretty stiff and bucking me around on bumps. I had already ordered a set of Eric's @ARCHIVE Hammer Hangers to help with some lift and flex, but I was not prepared for such a dramatic change in ride quality after the install. If you haven't already read up on his hangers, I'd highly recommend them and don't know that I could have withstood the stiff ride without them for too much longer (again, didn't have the AAL). The ride is pretty comparable to stock and depending on who's riding, possibly better. Hammer Hangers only lifted the back about 1/4" too on stock shackles.

 

Those hangers look nice. I have not driven the truck enough to really tell how it rides yet but if I have the same issues i will look into the hammer hangers.

Nice truck by the way, are those 35" tires?

 

look like 37s to me

 

They might be.

 

Tires are 37's.
