    Just placed my order today, stoked! This deal alone convinced me to upgrade my choice from OME's to Extended Travel CO's. Hopefully it was a good call :)

    Now just to decide on rear shocks and tires....

    I think when I ordered (Feb. 17th) there was a 3 week back-order. However, as I mentioned before, you won't be charged until it ships. Its too damn cold in the northeast right now for me to install it anyways.

    I ordered on the 17th, I called Icon this past Friday and they told me my coilovers would ship that day. So it was only around a week from my order to the shipping date.

    Getting ready to pull the trigger on a suspension kit. I'd like to get the front coil-overs with the IVD Coating but I don't see an option on your website. Is it possible to order them through you guys?

    I think you are better off calling them to ask on how to pay for that. Here is a post he answered it already in the thread:

    Standard travel coilover is meant to be used with your factory UCA's, and the extended coilover has the extra 7/8" of down travel meant to be used with an aftermarket UCA.[/QUOTE]

    Would LR UCA's be sufficient or are uni-balls needed?

    Go through this thread, that was an ongoing discussion. I would suggest just calling Icon and ask them specifically

    10x better!!!! The toytecs are good for mostly on road driving and light off roading, but doesnt take big bumps and stuff verry well. the icons ride smoother on harsher terrain and bumps/potholes.

    Im upgrading from Radflo's bc these radflo's are pretty meant for 2.5" of lift, and im at 3" and the ride is harsh! Every bump i can feel and is jarring... plus I have almost no down travel, they top out over spped bumps. I hate it!

    Plus for practically the same price you get a 2.5" body, and a rebuildable awsome coilover. Toytecs are just a over priced 5100 with an adjustment collar...
    IMO
