[QUOTE="JAndreF321, post: 1624190, member: 40327"] All the suspension stuff really adds up. $250 Eibach, $1500 Leaf Packs, $1800 Bump stop kit, $800-1000 install, $150 alignment, $150 live valve adaptation reset, freight shipping ($200-500) = $5kish. I went with Eibachs ($250), Icon option 3 ($1500), Forged Offroad Bumpstop Pads ($175), Timbren ABS Bumpstops ($250), alignment ($150), Ride height adaptation ($150) = $2,475. I installed them myself and I thought I was going to crush my chest while getting the leaf springs into place, but it worked out. They are also making a forscan option to reset your ride height so you don't have to go to Ford. If you don't want to do the front Eibachs then you could always leave them stock and do +3 Deaver HD or Icon Option 2. The Icons come with the stuff to swap the suspension however you want, but if you make a change and need to adjust it again then you will need to buy new hardware. With the Eibachs and Option 3 Icons I'm at 42" front, 43.25" rear with 600lbs in the back. [ATTACH=full]311300[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311301[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311302[/ATTACH] I originally did Option 2 on the Icons, but had negative rake and some sway when fully loaded with supplies, wife, and pups.
