I am in the market getting ready to upgrade my suspension. I see you sell Fox setup and Icon setup... Which one do you think is the best? Is there a reason for selling both other than some like fox and some dont?

We offer both brands of shocks. We prefer ICON shocks for the front and rear of the Raptor. In our experience, on numerous trucks, the ICON shocks have proven to be the best riding shocks both on and off road. Additionally, the ICON's have ease of adjustment over the Fox shocks via the ICON compression adjustment on the coilovers and the ability to change compression and rebound with a knob on the bypasses, rather than needing tools like on the Fox shocks. ICON coilovers will also give you just a little more travel than the Fox shock set-up when coupled with an upper arm.

ICON puts countless hours of test time and R&D into their products before they are released. They test, tune, and re-test to be sure you are getting the best possible product for your truck before it ships out the door.

One last thing to consider is some people like blue and some people like black, so we offer both.

So, its smart to get new halfshafts if you go with the icon setup...
