    Ok here is my topic to discuss. Going with Icons! Decided. I was thinking of going with the 2.5 remote resi. BUT is it over kill to the 2.0 remote resi? And can both of these be upgraded later to the CDC?

    IMO it is not overkill.
    I believe that they can be upgraded, but it's more $$, i'd ask Downsouth motorsports to be sure

    It depends on what you plan on using your truck for. I mean if you are going for mid travel and do occasional off roading then I would go with the 2.0

    For the rears. From my understanding the 2.0 are not rebuildable later to the CDC but the 2.5's are. That's why ill probably go with the 2.5 remote resi for the rear ill have to double check with the guys at Icon.

    What do you do in your truck and what are you planning on doing after the upgrade?
