I will get the shocks rebuilt but most likely sell them once done...the rebuild kit is $26...I can't have any down time to "hurry up and wait" though.
If you have any suggestions, I'd be grateful to hear them! Or should I just "deal with it" and rebuild these Icons for reuse?
Also, should I grab new hardware for my rear leaf-pack when I install the Timbren Bumpstops or reuse the OE stuff (no rust, only 84k miles)?

Find a specialty suspension shop near you that does shock rebuilds with a short lead time. How long will it take for the rebuild kit to ship?
But, if it were me, I'd snag some of the Dobinson's IMS or higher stuff instead. Get those installed, rebuild and sell the Icon.
But, that's me and it's easy spending other people's money. lol.
