I have a 2017 and went with the route of lets see how she does first. I found the front to be a little soft so I went with the RPG adjustable collars up front. It barely changed the ride at all for getting 2 inches in height. In the rear, I opted for protection first and went with the ICON bump stops after seeing all the bent frames on here. My next will be Icon rear springs in the +3 position. That should eliminate the side slide feeling in the rear you feel on the freeway and the washboard stuff in the desert. My next mods will all be geared toward surviving the desert. JDS spare tire/jack mount for the bed. Pro Eagle Jack. Builtright racking in the bed for shovel, air tank, tools and straps. My truck goes plenty fast in the dirt now, just want to make sure I can get home. My first mods were Kenwood radio with race freq's on it and front bumper with lights.

Once I blow through that its prob going to be ICON or FOX 3.0's next when I get a lump some of money dropped in my lap.

Honestly, you can't go wrong with either one. Biggest question, do you want adjustable or do you want static heigh collars?

Besides the price, I can't see any downside of going with adjustable correct? Seems like the best choice even though after I have them put on the first time I pry will not mess with them again.

Very nice and good information man! I know it will always be personal preference on this question, but I'm curious on what you guys think...

What company makes the best suspension equipment? I've always heard King is the best, along with Fox etc. Can anyone name the top 4-5 companies that one can't go wrong when it comes to suspension shit
