Shocks are in, truck is aligned as best as possible. Will need to install the camber shims later though...
All I can say is WOW!!! The Icons shocks are so effing unbelievable!!! Ford should have these from the factory. The truck ride is like nothing ive felt before!! Holy Shit... Cant wait to hit some big bumps now!!!

Awesome... It is amazing how properly sized and designed shocks improve this truck.

When I picked up my 2010 Scab and came home my GF asked well how do you like it? I told her I like this cause it truck rides so dam good I cant believe it...
When I picked up the 2012 Screw I came hone and she asked the same thing. I said I like a lot its nice to have the extra power. Later she said you sure dont seem as happy as you did with the first Raptor. I really didnt think it was that obvious but I wasnt as happy cause the truck didnt seem to ride as nice as the Scab..
Until today!!!! The Icons are leaps and bounds better than the stock shocks and Ford should really think about adding these the the next generation Raptor!

I almost routed the reservoirs behind the shock and removed the swaybar... Ya believe that? I figured that I would try it like this and since its a ease change I might do it later
