One year later and I am still so impressed with the AccuTune suspension on this truck. Thanks for watching!

Thanks! And I think you're going to like it.

Thanks. I like 2 for all round anything....

I was OK with 3 with just a cap on the truck, tho I did tend to reduce the compression.

You’re welcome!

You are very welcome. And thank you!

I do recommend them. They ride really nice and you can adjust the height and ride by adding or subtracting springs.

@@JohnTYoung I got my rxt lead pack on order. What setting would work best for me 1, 2 or 3? I don't have a camper or any gear or weight on it

@@chrisginoc I would call Icon and ask them, honestly. I talked to Accutune (who I bought the springs from) who called Icon to work out the loads. Keep in ind that less is more with springs. They should be just stiff enough to hold your truck up and your very expensive shocks should do all the rest of the work.

I just read your comment I am on the situation like you I am looking at Deaver and Icon rear spring. I don’t have weights on my truck all the time. How do you like the icon add leaf spring? What setting did you do 1,2, or 3 ? I like my rear to be higher than my front. Right now I have Icon stage 3 lift kit on my 3nd gen tacoma. Thanks

@@trex3215 love my icon rxt lead pack. Setting level 1 because I have zero weight in the back.

A year later and everything is fine. Best riding truck I've ever owed with this setup.

Perfect. I really love this suspension.

Think Icon will send me a commission? Ya, me neither. Thanks for watching.

I had the rear kit installed professionally since it included a lot of cutting and re-welding. I drive with a cap on the truck (#300?) all the time and it drives great. That's with one of the extra leafs, not both. Both might be too stiff for me, but maybe not you and how you drive.

@@JohnTYoung awesome thank you 👍🏼

Working perfectly. I took the cap off the truck and it does sit a little high, but with 2 dirtbikes in the back it’s perfect

@JohnTYoung thanks. By any chance do you have measurements unloaded ground to fender wheel well or middle of hub to fender wheel well?

Weeee. I’d shoot Ivan an email or give them a call. I got mine as a kit from Accutune so they may have supplied extra parts.

Dunno. Maybe ask Icon?

You'd have to talk to Icon and make sure the spring rate was correct... But otherwise, I don't see why not.

It will change it some for sure.

If I got bigger tires would that offset it and allow more weight in the back ? I prob sound dumb here but just want to make sure I maintain a rake here thanks so much for this video though

I am thinking of getting wildpeak 175/70/r17 and those are I believe 55 lbs. tire on c load so thinking possible that would weigh down front maybe more then the back for better rakw also feel free to call me a idiot I’m just trying to figure out best ride for me

Mark Brodeur weight is a matter of frame and suspension so it should not affect you load capacity as along as you don’t exceed the tires weight carrying capacity

I do not. Sorry. I have the spring pack set at 2, which works PERFECT when the tent isn't up there and not half bad when it is. I've even carried the tent AND a motorcycle on a hitch mount and it still works alright.

@@JohnTYoung great thank you for the reply when you run your mother ship load are what do you think your total weight is with your camping gear and carrying people really considering the rxt for the cost saving but wanted the deavers for the load capacity but if your running at stage 2 with all that weight i think stage 3 on the icons may be just enough

@@DLAC000 500 or 600 lbs? But the bike sits WAY out back.

Nope, no shims and no vibes.

and you have your set up on second stage am I correct? thanks for your reply big help.

@@sevenatenine5468 Yes. I wanted it to be able to carry a lot of weight, but I wasn't going to carry it all the time. I like how it rides with the shell on

Colorado and Moab, UT areas.

Do you have any squeak on your rxt?

Yes. Super heavy duty. I have not noticed any more squeaks than before. LOL.

265/70/R17 KO2 Load Rating C. Wish they were bigger, but they don't rub at full flex without me having to cut anything. I plan on adding bigger tires and re-gear at the same time.... Phase 2!

@@JohnTYoung Just Subbed, this is the type of reply i was looking for while combing though your vid comments. I just ordered my lift, slightly more tame version of yours. King 2.5 extended travel fronts with SPC UCAs (considering trading out for that delta joint) with #700 lb springs. In the Rear King 2.5 standard with adjusters and a heavy dakar pack, I decided to plan ahead knowing this was going to be a bit stiff, but bumpers, armor, and a tent coming very soon. I want to do this once. The last piece of the equation is tires. I had pretty much sold myself on 265s to limit the speedo, mpg, and chopping compromises. But will i just end up wishing i had gone 285, dealt with the compromises until i could regear? Starting all over again would you do it the same? I am just nervous ill hate the truck with 285s until i can regear, which lets face it might be some time. I think id rather put the money into equipment and supplies to go have fun that an extra couple grand on gears. Long winded, forgive me haha.

@@RawLobst3r I have 285/70/r17s recently installed Falken Wildpeaks. Truck is slower and you do notice the effect. Mind you, my 17" wheels are barely 23.5 lbs and I still feel it. I can't wait to re-gear. Could I drive around like this and most others who don't regear and also get 33" tires? Sure, but it would drive me crazy.

@@chrisginoc make sure to get 5.29 on 2016+ automatic, if you will go 4.88 you will just want 5.29. Manual go 4.56 or 4.88.

@@very_perfect I have 4.88 on 33s and I definitely do NOT want to go to 5.29
