New ICON’s (1 Viewer)

[joebattle1]

Just installed a new Icon 2.5”-3” lift kit. I also installed Old Man Emu rear leafs and an add—leaf for towing with grease-able shackles. Truck is sitting a bit higher in the rear than the front. Should sit dead level with a camper.

I also installed a new steering rack, lower ball joints, Icon upper control arms, and Toyota Tie Rod Ends

OOoooh Shiny! Very nice. Did you replace the rack and pinion just because you were already in there?

I had a dealer tell me it needed to be replaced. I’m not sure I believe them but the boots were torn. Since I was digging into the front I decided, no better time to replace.

Why did the axles and spindles get removed?

I replaced the axles with HD axles from Rock Auto.

Non oem axles? Is HD a brand or are they marketed as heavy duty?

Here’s a screen shot of the units. They are marketed for lifted trucks. They are also more stout than the OEM axles.
