Waiting on ICON lift Anybody?

So I ordered ICON stage 1 on black Friday and have yet to receive my coilovers! Is anyone else experiencing this delay from a certain vendor? I do not want to mention the company at this time since they have seem to have a big presence on this forum. I did receive the rear lift in a reasonable amount of time.

Same boat bro. My rear stuff showed up quickly and I just got an email stating the front coilovers should be here Jan 5th. Would have been nice to get them this week but oh well. It was nice to save a few hundred dollars but a heads-up would have been appreciated. I called the week after I ordered to see why I hadn't gotten a tracking number and they gave me the bad news.
 
Lots (if not all) of the COs come directly from Icon as they are valved to specs provided by the vendor. Due to the holidays, it can happen. Mine took longer than expected and it wasn't during the holidays. I highly doubt it is a delay by the vendor and rather a delay by the manufacturer.
 
Glad to hear I am not the only one waiting but I agree a heads up after a couple weeks would of been appreciated. I didnt even really think about ICON being overloaded with filling orders for the holiday season, definitely going to keep that in mind next time Im looking at placing an order.
To the guys that wait on shrockworks or other road armor fabricators, more power to you for being patient. But at least you expect a multiple month wait after purchase.
 
I too am just waiting on the coilovers. I emailed Metal Tech and they told me that Icon was shut down for inventory and will be back 1/5/15 to restart production

That sucks. I went through Wheeler's and I guess I should consider myself lucky since I have mine now.
 
Heh yeah, well fall/winter is a big time for offroad parts, and xmas to and then a nice discount.

My rear shocks took about 3 weeks, the UCAS took 6 but shipped earlier this week.

Oh and I really got to test out the rear adjustable resi shocks mon/tues and they are amazing! Can't believe I waited so long for them. Absolutely no more rear end bounce/pop up.

I love my icons, worth the wait :)

I wonder what the shut down was all about? When I ordered I figured they would of had a good stock at the vendor for the orders to be fulfilled regardless of the specific vehicle and due to the advertised promotion.
Im still waiting and have yet to hear any notification I'll be sending an email this week. The anticipation is killing me!
I sprayed pb blaster on on all four corners of my suspension last night pre prepping for disassembly.
Congratulations to those of you that have received your orders!
 
My UCAs shipped from Wheelers on the 30th which means it must have been shipped from icon a few days before....

They're in the back of my runner waiting install on Thursday now :)
 
ICON gets slammed when they do this offer each year. I spoke to the folks at MetalTech and at ICON directly about my Stage 1 kit. I ordered as part of the black Friday weekend deal as well and my front shipped in late December, my rears shipped about a week later but due to the UPS holiday schedule they both arrived within a couple days of each other.

If you email the vendor then they might be able to check incoming shipments to see when they will arrive, but since these sales cross some many makes ICON is probably building shocks as fast as they can just to keep up.

I am currently waiting on a set of rear springs before I can install my new setup. Springs should be in tomorrow.
 
ICON is really backed up, they sold 1000s of sets during the Blackfriday sale. We ran a big group buy on Tacomaworld and it has caused a pretty significant delay and I know a lot of guys are awaiting their kits.
 
Got a email from the vendor yesturday letting me know the coilovers are shipping out and should be arriving Monday the 19th. Even though its a been a long wait I can understand the back up in production they may experience during the holidays, just wasnt prepared for it.
I took my wheels and tires to get mounted and balanced yesturday. As long as UPS comes through next week I will be installing my lift next weekend!:bluejump:
