I still need to install the upper trailing arms but this looks sweet to me! It's hard to see but if you look closely you can see the shock knuckle guards.

Nice! I would love to get new suspension components but just not ready to ditch the xreas yet. Did you just get buy the vehicle? There is not a speck of dirt on it.
 
My bet is you don't even drive it. You are waiting to get everything done first to make its debut.

:girl:

And good god those ICON lower links are SEXY. The uppers and lowers are on my list!

Ditto--- the Xreas seem great for my driving habits..... Although can't stop thinking about Icons....

Believe it or not, it's my daily driver. In fact it's the only vehicle I own. The thing is, I work from home so the only mileage it sees is to go to the store or go out an play so it has less than 700 miles on it. So far, I'm limiting trails to level 1-2 while I get the feel for it and make the main suspension upgrades
 
Those lower rear trailing arms would survive basically anything I'm pretty sure. I was in awe the first time I pulled mine out of the box. They are SOLID. looks great on your truck!
 
...sigh.. nice going Grant... way to rub it in... Now you got me nagging the wife again and getting me into the dog house over wanting to increase my play budget... :hiding::dammit:

Looking very nice though!

Okki
 
Please ignore my ignorance... what benefit do the beefier lower rear trailing arms provide. Is is only that they are more resistant to being damaged while offroad or do they improve the function of the suspension?

Thanks.

The are MUCH stronger than stock (some people have bent the stock ones), the johnny joint is rated at 40,000 lbs, they have grease fittings, they also have slight different geometry which corrects roll steer on lifted trucks

What up front?
Right now stock, within 1-2wks I'll install the following, ICON remotes w/ severe weather option, 700lb coils and ICON billet UCA. Almost forgot, at the same time the 2" lift ICON rear springs will go in.
