    Want to redo my front suspension with new uca and some type of coilover please give your opinion on which ones to consider. Want to do it right the first time. Total chaos, camburg, icon, light racing all good choices

    Question for anyone that is running icon extended travel. The spring that it comes with will it be fine with the amount of weight I have up front?

    It should. Although not sure how much the spring rate on the 1st setup is. If its 650, it should hold up the 1st fine

    Couldnt really say. I dont want to put out misleading info. I had went from stock shocks to the camburg adj coilovers. I like them and it was a huge improvement over the stock parts

    :thumbsup: You will not be disappointed. I had LR UCAs on my old Tacoma and was pleased. Just remember to keep the instructions showing how to make caster adjustments to give to the tech when you get your alignment done. Otherwise, I guarantee he will waste an hour of your time and then come out and say the arms are not adjustable. Ask me how I know :rolleyes:

    not currently. running OME nitro sport with 881s and the 10mm top plate. i may step up to a full coilover in the future... but these are riding great right now.
