If you have Deavers w/o bumps, I like the SDHQ plates because they come with better beefier top plates for the leaf pack which doesn’t require boring out the pin holes

Interesting. I have the ICONs for the GEN1 and just replaced them a couple weeks ago due to warranty. I torqued the ubolts to 145 as shown in their instructions and drove for about 500 miles and re-torque them again. Nothing broke. I also have the Camburg stock height replacement shackles. I put those on according to the pictures on their website. ICONs instructions showed to torque the shackles to 89 and the front bolt to 181. I called them about that because Ford shows it should be 258 for the front and 136 for the shackles. ICON shouldn’t make a difference because you are using stock bolts/nuts. The ICON rep said the instructions must be wrong and torque to Ford specs. I did the ubolts to ICON instructions because those are “their” ubolts/nuts but now wondering if they might be wrong on that too.....

Rick where did you get the stock Ford torque specs for the leaf spring F/R bolts and the shackle?

EDIT. NM just found the torque spec sheet.

Wow 45.25”!

What was your ride height before and if you know how much of that came from the 37’s?

Truck looks great, wish the icons were available when I ordered Deavers and interesting in the camburg shackles. I have the camburg shackles and +2 HD and ride height is the same as stock after settling.

Front and rear were both sitting at 43” with the Deaver +3HD and 37s, but I had previously dialed in the Fox’s To have .5” rake when I had the regular Deaver +3s on. The 37s give me an extra inch on the measure.
The 45.25” is empty bed. I get a little compression with the spare and jack back in. Could throw in some extra weight if needed. I’ll eventually have two 37’s back in after winter. I’m also betting these Icons will settle a quarter inch or more.
