Did this level your front end?

 

[ntsaint]

The truck sits pretty level now yes. SLIGHT rake.

If you run Icons w/ resi's you'll have to notch out a portion of the spacer to allow proper fitment for the resi hose nozzle on the top of the coil overs- if you tackle this mod you'll understand where / and what needs to happen once you're in it.

This week, for me it was more of a "what your LC has done to you", just finished a fun road trip to Southern Arkansas, Mississippi, louisiana, Memphis. Now back home with an extra 2000 miles, ready for the 10,000 miles oil change.

Added OE strut spacers up front, OE takeoff wheels from a 2014, and 275/70/18 BFGs. Night and day difference. Thx to @MScruiser for the guidance on setup and @wct49 and 49tire for the great install

Looks great! Did you have to fiddle around with loosening the KDSS valve screws - or is this an easy unbolt, bolt type of thing?

 

[ntsaint]

Thanks. Yes, @MScruiser gave me guidance on that. If i were doing it again i would open the valves prior to any work, then close them after done.

Added some color up front!

Ordered this a while back and mounted it last night. Still need to wire it up. Pretty slick and tucked.

Replaced stock fog lamp bulbs with Nokya Hyper Yellow bulbs:

Bought bulbs here: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ITAF0EE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00

Look good:

Easy project

Fog lamps should be yellow

Does the shock assembly have to come out to install the spacer?

 

[sage1]

I'm considering installing the spacers too, this video takes you through the shock removal process. There's a point where the shock is loose and the spacers could be slipped into place.

spacers? - do you mean trim packers on the top of the coils

Bottom shock bolt, kdss arm link, steering link, and upper ballall had to be detached enough for me to get the shock and strut out of the bucket. Not a hard deal. The video posted above is a great guide.

Yes.
