If just for the garage , you can get the heavy duty model (Harbor Freight) for a $100 less. Get at least the 2 1/2 ton. If for the trail then the aluminum racing model has worked great for me. You will want to loosen /locktight and re torque all screws and nuts as they will rattle loose over time.

Well after a few hours trying to get this bump stop system installed... Guess what, It dont fit with my Borla exhaust!!! I even spaced it down 3/8in and looks like I need more than 1in :( :( :( Not happy...
Anyone want a Borla exhaust for $400?

So, had to break down and install the stock exhaust... I called Icon and they said oh the system was designed for a vehicle with stock exhaust. SO, looks like I will sell my Borla exhaust... I had to shim down the side with the exhaust, the instruction say bend the hangers... Umm, I aint bending the exhaust hangers... A neutralized exhaust does not have bent hangers. Or I could cut em off and turn em down but dam!!! I will need to ride in someones truck to hear it and decide form there....
