That looks awesome! I'm actually planning on the same lift with coil overs. I'm wanting the BDS with Fox shocks but I am contemplating going with the procomp to save some money (about $1000 cheaper). How do you like the ride?

The front is great! The rear I'm still undecided on. It almost feels like the rear is too stiff and wants to "kick" off bumps. I've only got about 200 miles on the lift so far though so I need to give it some time to settle and lossen up.

Were there any reasons you went with the coilovers rather than just replacement shocks? I know it's technically better but I am just interested in why people choose one product over another.

Main reason for me was that I didn't like the stock suspension at all. It was great when I was on decent roads but I hated the feel on bad roads and off road.

Second reason: They look so much better, no pictures will do justice to how awesome they look sitting in there with the big resivors sitting on top.

Beautiful!! How much lift are you getting out of your Icon coilovers? Have you adjusted them at all?

Not the best picture but this is mine with Icon 2.5 coilovers, Camburg UCAs, rear AAL, Fox 2.0 rear shocks and the sway bar removed. 33" tires on 17's. I'm only getting about 1.75" of lift out of the Icons right now.

Little over 2". I tweaked them a bit to get the front close to the rear. I actually eye'd up your truck because of your rim size before I did mine

Haha thanks man, yours looks perfect. I want to adjust mine up about 3/4" but I wonder how much that would throw off my alignment.

It throws it off... I actually need to re-adjust mine to get it back to the measurements I took right after the alignment.
