GEN 1 "Any long term" reviews on the icon rxt leaf springs?

I know they havent been out for a super long time but, im trying to get a little more info and some opinions on them before i plop down the coin on a set or go deaver +2. Seems like i can only find initial impressions on them.

I've actually only have used them for 3 months so far because I haven't had my truck for 3 months. I went on one raptor run with them and the rest has been half highway and city. The ones I had before I did notice a slight improvement but plastic spacers were coming out and started to separate.

I've noticed even more of an improvement over what I had but I also got the whole RXT system. Staying together and no issues. I like how the RXT leafs come with a Add-a-Leaf so you can have 3 different options and can change it around whenever you want. Leave it like it comes, remove a leaf or add another. I added the leaf and with the weight in the back it just soaks up the terrain.

I don't have a real long longevity with them but so far I am extremely pleased. Will put them to their ultimate test when I go to Baja in May for a 1000 miles and 3000 miles of highway.

I hear they work well but no real feedback on springs alone. If you go with deavers consider the +3 option that is my choice and getting them shortly. Who knows maybe someone will say their first hand comparison deavers vs icon will sway me to the txt.

Any updates on these, I'm considering these and the Deaver +2. I'm matching them up with a set of progressive fronts springs and stock springs.

Just an FYI but if you plan on a chase rack or extra weight in the bed, go with Deaver +3. I went with Deaver +2 and with my chase rack I sag more than I like in the rear.

Deaver is going to re-arch to +3 and add a load leaf for me next week.

What are we talking about?

Thanks. I'll be towing an Airstream trailer occasionally but no plan to add chase rack.
