[QUOTE="Jeff Williams, post: 1728654, member: 36118"] 2 weeks ago I installed some new Icon leaf springs. The install was pretty straight forward. Did it by myself in the driveway and it took me about 8hrs. I have Fox coilovers on the front and triple bypass on the rear. I have put about 500 miles on it since the install. Night and day difference on the street. Haven't had it off road yet. From the ground to the wheel arch on the front is 43" and the coilovers have 8 threads showing above the collar. The rear from the ground to the wheel arch is 46". I didn't add the add in leaf. The spare tire is mounted flat in the back of the bed. Do you guys think there is still enough adjustment with the front coilovers to level the truck with out putting to much preload on the springs. I also installed a MBRP turn down exhaust and it has a great sound and minimal drone. Also had some Falken Wildpeak MT 37x12.5x17 tires installed. The last install was a SecoAutoparts 9 drive - 9 mode electronic throttle controller. Bought on Amazon. I was a little skeptical but it really woke up the throttle response. The truck pulls pretty hard compared to stock. Next up coming mods will be some Dirty Life wheels, KC lightbar and SVC rear Baja V3 rear bumper. The stock wheels in the picture used to be monster energy green but the green top coat has faded over the last few years. my Raptor is a 2013 with 83,000 miles on it. The second picture is when the suspension was stock and had airbags for towing our Jeep. And the rims where green1 [/QUOTE]
