    Oh fuck no. Dude. That. Is. Awful.

    Is that in the directions that we rarely consulted?

    Like Chris says above. The Icons should be adjustable after they are installed.

    The reservoirs are the reason we have to take them off to adjust. The fitting is in the way.

    Edit: Not sure if the 3rd gen's have the same lean as the 2nd's, but my Kings are adjusted to 9 threads on the driver and 4 on the passenger. (Counted by putting my knife blade in the valleys.) Also, I used a spring compressor to adjust them.

    I found an easy sub for a spring compressor, that worked a hell of a lot better than the crap rental one from auto parts stores. I have some of the heavy duty ratchet straps, I think theyre the 3" thick straps, maybe 10k lbs rated. One on each side of the spring, worked like a charm.

    It makes it so much easier lol, you can find premade harnesses with a relay, fuse, wiring, and it's own rocker switch. When I get off work I'll take some photos as I still have the 2nd harness to install
