i doubt it's a icon-sourced design lol i much more inclined to believe they do their own.

Here are the parts list to save you some digging lol this one is the extended travel in the front that can get you 3"
but i highly don't recommend go full 3" because you are sacrificing a bit of travel.
i left mine at stock Fox setting and it's leveled with the carli Rebel HD rear springs.

Perfect..and I like your combo of Fox and Carli!!

Fox 2.5 DSC Suspension - A Brief Overview, Procedure, and Review of Proper Suspension Setup

There are plenty of suspension offerings on the market for the 5th gen Ram 1500 platform, ranging from cheap to expensive. In this thread, I will be detailing why I chose Fox 2.5 for my build, procedures of installing and dialing in the ride, and a review of the build as everything came...

that was the best choice in 2022 lol
ordered my truck end of June 2022 and July 1st I put together the list and started contacting suppliers.
After July 4th all parts were ordered, accounting for all the lead time. Plan was to get the truck ready by 12/31/2022 for Alaska 2023.
Truck delivered November 2022, by Christmas basically everything was installed and I only worked on it on weekends.
Alaska 23 delayed but after ~a year of shakedown runs I only have a few camping things to iron out (primary the water and shower situation) and I'm happy lol

at some point, if I decide to keep this forever, I'll do a Thuren King setup or even custom LT. Plan is to go PW with Carli Dominator in the next few years lol
