The ride feels right too. Thanks!

Approximately what will this run you and what kind of off-roading is it tuned for?

We talk about it in the video but this specific kit costs a little over $4200. As far as a specific off-road terrain, I wouldn't say it specializes in any one. It's very well-rounded in all aspects. Whether taking on rough terrain at speed or crawling through rocks, this suspension did great. Again, this is coming after three full days of off-road experience with the kit. Let me know if you have any more questions about it.

Got the alignment paperwork? How the caster with those Tubular Icon Arms?

I installed the IR coilovers that I got on sale in August for $2435. I didn't get the UCA because the stock UCA is actually good enough for clearance and full droop, so I wanted to see if I could get it into alignment before buying new UCAs. At 26.5 inches lift center axle to metal fender, the stock UCAs gave over 3 degrees of caster, so for now they are fine. I'll probably eventually replace them, but I don't have to at the height I'm currently at.

Should look better in a couple of weeks when I get my 35s on.

Love the video! One question, the written portion you put up in the middle of the video seems to indicate the Icon Stage 3 AND an 1.5" body lift. Am I reading that correctly? Is that required to fit 37" x 12.50 tires?

For what I use the vehicle for, the body lift definitely helps. I would say the more important upgrade for making the vehicle functional off-road would be the max tire clearance kit. I would still say in order to make 37" tires on a -12 offset wheel functional off-road, it took the body lift, suspension lift, and max tire clearance kit. Here's a link to that kit: https://www.wildhorses4x4.com/product/jks-max-tire-clearance-kit/s

I'll be happy to answer any other questions you have!

I'm planning on the max tire kit you mentioned. Also my wheel has o offset.
Thank you!
