What Do We Have Here?

Pardon my ignorance but is the icon RXT a similar design? I'm not bashing, just curious?

No. It is using the stock shock locations. The shocks are not longer but have a remote reservoir and a patent pending design to keep the shock for moving/twisting.

Oh yea good point

The design is different from RXT, but I believe goals are similar: Getting the most performance possible in the rear suspension without cutting holes into the bed.

Ok so I seen a picture on fb and it looks very similar to what wog/Rpg is doing but it is for their 15 f150 conversions MY BAD!!!

I guess I'm missing the part where this is better than a bedcage. Pulling the bed and adding a cross member is a lot more work than just cutting a hole throwing a shock tower in and being done . Plus it gets your shocks relocated up out of harms way.

This system is for people who don't want to lose any bed space and don't want to have big holes in their bed.

That's right.
One weekend I'm hauling my quad, the next I'm helping my buddy move hauling furniture, the next I'm hauling ass down a dirt road.
Win win situation.

With the bed cage your lower shock mounts are above the lower axle that is a plus. With the looks of this kit the lower shock mounts are like a lot like stock, below the axle to gain the travel needed. I know some people that have ripped or damaged their lower rear shocks or mounts but not too many. Personally I use my truck to do work and love taking it off road. I would rather have a removable bed rack and risk having mounts below the axle Than having a dedicated bed cage that cannot be removed. That being said I wish they would come up with a kit that won't require me to buy another bump stop kit and use the Rpg I currently have.

What people are saying is correct. You get a large increase in wheel travel without the holes and cage to deal with. You also get a big boy shock standard with this kit (3.5"). The increased travel, no lost bed space and larger shock make this a very attractive package.

Did you have to raise or lower the bump from where Rpg has theirs placed?
