I have a spanner from ICON on back order... In my opinion, they should throw it in there. I have some but not the correct size. RideTech doesn't include them either even though the stuff I have from them costs even more. My fronts were preset less then midway, I have quite a bit more to go. As it is set, my front went up 3 inches.

Body shop took longer than I expected, but front end is done. Next plans are gray/black emblem overlays that I need to install and wheels/tires installed on Friday. I'll have better pictures this weekend.

Looks damn good! What do you think about the Icon Stage 5? I am considering changing out the Stage 3 to a Stage 5. The extra paint to match changed the look entirely, Good choice. I have the overlays from Stage 3 Motorsports, good quality but it was difficult for me to line up with the FORD on the emblem with the one on the decal. These decals are one piece. I have seen others that are two piece. It may have just been me though haha. I will probably take them apart and get them painted.

You know the one thing I do like is being able to adjust the compression rebound which makes a difference. Is it huge? Well I don't off road much so I can't say yes, but I would assume yes for someone who does. The streets I drive on are terrible, lots of railroad crossings, etc. so I like to have that option.
I tried to line up that damn emblem and gave up. I need to tint my windshield so I was going to have them do it, but like you said it may be better to take them apart and have them painted
I'm not familiar at all with them.The place I went to does a lot of clearing headlights and changing circuit boards on truck headlights so I'm really tempted to have them do my truck. Just pricey to have a white ring instead of amber

I have a 501A Lariat, got screwed with the halogen headlights... For the price of the truck, all Lariats should have LED headlights standard. I need to swap mine. I don't off road much in mine either, I work out of an F-350. Our roads are garbage too, the Stage 3 isn't bad at all, I can't complain. I think I may change them out though.

Did you take any height measurements of the front/rear? I still need to set the front of mine to the tallest setting. Then I will have to order rear lift blocks. I read on Icon's website and it looks like my 20x9" BMF Novakanes with a 0 offset and 35x12.5r20 tires wont fit. I'm curious to see how that works out:/

Yes, I may do that. I am also going with Amp steps, maybe even ADD Bumpers. I can sell those, BMF now S.O.T.A. Wheels, and Icon, Fox many others. I plan on running several of the higher end stuff for advertisement. It helps that I want it! Lol

Yeah despite the fender wells appearing big, they're not that big. I have 20x10 Welds with 295/55/20 nitto trail grapplers and it will rub slightly at full turn. With 35s I can imagine it would definitely rub. I've heard of guys hacking up their crash bars, but I couldn't do that personally...
