Well all I can say is Icon make it to any shock shoot out. If Icon make it Icon't tell until Icon check my calendar. Icon tell you if Icon make it but Icon't for sure

Comparing 3 top shocks is like comparing 3 of your favoret ice creams.



Almost :smoke2:

It's really like comparing YOUR favorite ice cream to the favorite ice creams of the other "testers"

Seriously, there are so few people who could "test" 3 Raptors with 3 different shock setups and be able to provide any useful feedback (let alone compare them) that the idea seems (to me) to be preposterous.

Buy whatever aftermarket shocks you want. Just be prepared to love them (1) more than stock because (2) you bought them and (3) they're on your Raptor (so they must be the best).


Knowing how to drive your truck with the equipment you have, is all that matters. Stock truly still works very well for MOST owners

Exactly!

So i went with kings. love them. I have 3.0 coilovers in the front. now for the big news

Im in the process of making my bed cage that will be welded to the frame with horizontal gusset bars to keep the frame nice and stiff.....
The reason I am welding it is because I am going to cut my bed and slap on King 4.5's with 4 bypass tubes and some deaver springs.

this is what i will be doing while guys are at TRR mwhahaha

Moderators can delete posts, and restore thread integrity if they want... That course should have been taken, if the shootout was actually a "possibility"...

Unfortunately, the shootout seemed dead before the shit slinging even began. Not sure why it wasn't pursued, other than at the time not all parties had donated a set of test shocks (which may or may not be accurate, as BigJ said others were in the talks as well).
Ohh the irony.

Well that's funny guess you never updated your first page of the shock shoot out like you said you would, because it still indicates that ICON is still the only ones that have agreed to supply shocks for your shout out. So if I am getting wrong info from your post be made at yourself not me.
Again, you don't know what you're talking about. And despite your best intentions, you're doing ICON no favors by continuing to sound like a fool.

Whatever.. These are the most under rated shocks ever!

Well shoot, at that price, we can buy 'em in bulk for our Raptors. Maybe put half a dozen on each corner.
