Finally a real custom Coilover

After going through a set of defective dirt logics and trying to get something custom out of Fox that rode good, I have gone a totally different route. The folks at ICON Vehicle Dynamics have built me these 2.5 adjustable coilovers for my setup that far exceede my expectations.

They worked with me on demensions at full droop/travel and got some something specifically valved for the lifted F-150.

I worked with Mike Crosby over there and I do have to say he's one of the finest folks I've ever worked with in the industry and the end result was well worth all the work. Now that all the homework is done on the demensions I believe they are going to making these available to the public for about 1250 MSRP.

Ride is smooth as butter.

I don't have much to comment on the coilovers but I am in love with your truck, just thought I'd throw that out there.

I have the Dirt Logics on my truck and they look almost exactly the same as yours in the pic. My question is the adjustment on the shock is threaded halfway up and down the shock. I have the wrench but have never used it. Is all the way up softer ride and all the way down stiffer? Do I need an alignment after every adjustment? By the way sweet truck!

I used to have the dirt logics...the adjustment really as to do a lot with the spring rate they used, which in my case was nice and soft.
