    Nice! You won’t be disappointed. I run the icon stage 4 , icon tubular UCA’s with delta joints, and Dakar HD leaf pack in the rear. It’s a Night and day difference compared to bilstein 5100’s I was using. Did you get 2.5 RR for rear as well? For my rear shocks I just went with the custom 2.0 extended travel for the rears and extended my brake lines.

    I have the stage 5 and love it. Been looking at the RXT leaf pack to replace the icon AAL.

    Yep. The RXT rear shocks are 2.5 RR's. I'm coming from an OME kit with Icon AAL right now so I'm sure it'll be a huge difference as well.

    Looking to get a stage 3 or 4 with either Dakar’s or the Icon AAL. Question for those who have icons, are you using the coilovers or a .25” spacer to combat the “Taco Lean”?

    I have just adjusted the coilovers. I would also checkout the RXT over the AAL.

    Have all the components for the stage 4 minus the front rr shocks, which seem to be back ordered for about a month. Should I be patient and wait for those or get non rr?

    I have RR on the rear but not the front. Daily driver only? Don’t waste your money. Desert running? Yeah you probably ought to get them.

    I pulled the trigger on a Stage 1 kit, nothing fancy, just starting off. I will be upgrading in the future, possibly Stage 3 or 4. I received my Rear Shocks today, but apparently the coilovers are backordered.

    Anything I should be watching out for with the Stage 1 kit? I’m running 265/70r/17, 0 offset/4.75” spacing

    no sweat. For some reason I read 285 instead of 265. Was worried about rubbing the stock UCA.

    I bet the ride quality is amazing, I just can’t wait for the coilovers to arrive and have the whole kit installed. So much excitement. :D

    For UCAs what would you recommend getting? I know everyone has their own take on their types/brands of UCAs. I’ve been looking between Total Chaos, Icon Tubular Delta Joints or Icon Billets. Still doing some research on which UCAs would be best

    Are the Icon REAR 2.0 VS RR (56503R) adjustable? Or just add height to the rear once installed?

    No, they are not height adjustable but provides extended travel. Your rear lift comes from your leaf pack. Dakar, deaver, rxt makes some good ones.
