I’m running them in option 2


Option #2

+20% spring rate over Option #1

+2.25″ lift height over stock (unloaded)

+1.00″ lift height over stock w/ 400lb constant load

Gotcha - And that's with everything on the truck? I've been going back and forth between the Icon's and Deavers but I think I've settled on the Icon. Did you have to do anything else to the rear other than use their bump stop kit?

Fully loaded up I have around 500lb of gear.

Just the rear leafs and bump stop extenders.

Just got back from a long offroad trip. The rack and tent were rock solid. Granted I wasn't in full offroad racing mode and the roads were only moderately rough, but a good initial shakedown run.

Just a heads up to keep an eye on the bolts that hold your tent to the Tepui crossbars and make sure they aren't rattling loose. I've got a Tepui tent and didn't notice anything until 3/4 bolts were completely undone and the last bolt was also very loose. Would be a disaster to have a tent launch itself on the highway or offroad.

Good looking set up though!

Thanks. Great tip. I do go over all my nuts and bolts for this exact reason.
