Icon or fox?

That is the exact measurement with my OME 2" lift (23" front 25" rear-full Dakars WTF?)

 

Mine is a second gen. I think there’s a slight difference on how much lift you can achieve between the two...

Truck looks good btw

 

Ahh, I see. my bad

And thanks

 

Depends on what coilovers you go with in the front or if you decide to do that, but Deaver offers their leaf packs in a variety of different intended ride heights and load carrying capacities so it is largely up to you. If you like a rake then select a taller leaf pack then coilover, if you don't then crank up the coilovers and make sure not to go over 1" rear lift because as others mentioned, you won't be able to safely crank the coils enough with more than an inch of lift to get it level.

 

You definitely picked the two at the opposite ends of the spectrum. You should definitely read up on the dedicated threads in the Suspension forum because there is A LOT to learn about the differences for each, as has been said in this thread already. You can see pictures and such to give you better ideas of the different setups. Most of these kits say they lift the truck 0 to 3", but thats not always the case. The Fox will come with 1" of lift out of the box, and to achieve more, you will have to crank up the preload on them.

I can't speak from experience because I don't have a suspension on my truck yet, but I have been doing all the research, adding kits and parts to shopping carts on various sites, and looking at pictures left and right. I definitely know that I'm going with Kings though...

 

~1”. Remember most people here seem to lift for looks not performance.

 

Fox

 

Ride must be harsh

 

OP

Of the two I would go with Fox.

 

I went with Fox Level 3 because they seem like a well-seasoned company, offering suspension for all types of vehicles for many years. However I’m definately upgrading to King down the road, because King.

 

I hope it’s some, not most. The whole point of fixing stock suspension is performance, if someone wants to drop Good money in a truck for looks, I’d be happy to photoshop their truck for them.

 

The answer is simple. KING

 

I'm smashing it like the dude who lost his rear axle...

 

Can someone explain to me the difference between Deaver single AAL and HS 3 Leaf AAL? Whats the difference in ride and best suits me?

 

The single Deaver will support extra load and add some stiffness. The HS 3 leaf will reduce load carrying capacity (unless you leave the overload in) and make the ride more compliant.

 

I need a little help with the same question but a slightly different question.. so I'm trying to stay on a budget and looking into getting a fox 2.0 set up with rear resi and had everything picked out already but someone had offered me an icon 2.5 front and rear with res but the thing is they have approximately 12000 miles on them and I'm not sure how bad that is regarding the life of a shock also I believe icon does rebuild for free the first time,

The fox 2.0 is about 1300 on sale
And the used icon 2.5 resi is 1500

 

I agree

 

what was the deciding factor that made you decide to go with kings! BBP for the win!

 

I have a set of fox 2.5 with dsc adjuster reservoir shocks for a '16 I'd sell for $700. They have more than half of their usable life left currently, as the shocks have around 20000 street miles on them, and they need rebuild every 50k road miles or when you see one of them start leaking all the time. Only around $150 bucks to have Fox rebuild your shox IIRC. Some off-road shops will be able to rebuild and revalve them for you if needed.
