Anyone Install Icon Stage 1 in 1500 3.0 Duramax?

[Time2gofishing1980]

I want to lift the truck a little for the plow I installed.  I'm thinking of doing the Icon stage 1 kit.  Icon can't verify compatibility w/ the 2020 MY yet.  Has anyone installed the Icon kit on a new 1500 diesel?  Icon tells me the Eibachs they use on the 2.5 VS shocks are 650#.

Will be following. I am very interested in this set up as well. Good luck

I was thinking of going Icons for my truck. How is the ride? Many people love Icons but I’ve read others say they are way too stiff.

Not sure about fox or king I liked the idea of smoother at faster speeds, running red dirt wash board at 60 is what I was after. If I ride around town maybe I would like a floaty softer ride but a tight controlled ride is my preference

Well said man, and very nice set up. I’m doing the same kit on my trail boss

I have the icon stage 1 on my custom, stage one I ran into a problem turned to 3 inches. The stage one had an aluminum internal spacer that limits travel. The ride was harsh, they said send em back and they will remove the spacer.. so I did a moto fab 1/2 inch lift to get it off the spacer and the rides better so it worked.  Seems good now, no harsh bumps on or offroad.

 

I did the stage one without control arms, on sale 1300.00..   I bought rc control arms instead of theirs.

Flatblack where/when/how did you get those on sale? Did that include the rear 2.0 shocks. That's considerably less than I can find anywhere! 

 

Also, is yours a 2019 or 2020 model?  Icon still isn't confirming fit for the 2020's and I can't understand why they would be at all different.
