I'm interested in them too. I don't want to raise the ride height but if I get a significant improvement in ride quality I can live with a .375" increase.

I’m wanting them to get rid of my Fabtech lift blocks and also improve ride quality.

I considered them.

Then almost found a set of Tremor takeoffs.


Then got in on the global springs before eBay shut down the shipping.


They seem really nice, I like the versatility. They're just pricey is all.

I’m not a fan of the price either but then again I haven’t been a fan of the price on the rest of my lift either. Lol.

I bet these are awesome ?
Just grease the bushings and the face of the eyelet for a no squeak ride!

I'm kicking myself for not getting the global springs. I was watching the quantity an didn't think they'd shut down shipping.

I'd like a set of Tremor takeoffs for sure.

I got lucky with my timing for sure.

How much lift does the tremor leaf’s offer? I need 1.2-1.5 of lift in the rear to equal my 3.5 lift up front.

They wouldn't provide what you're looking for then.

½", maybe ⅝" over your factory single leaf.

Copy, thanks. And they are probably close to the ICON price.

From Ford? Most likely.

I bought my FX-4 about a year ago.

I was never sold on the single spring and knew I'd eventually do a mild lift. I was stoked about the multileafs on the Tremor and the slight lift over FX-4 height was right up my alley. I wanted a 2" lift up front with a slight rear lift (preferably by progressive leafs) to retain a bit of rake for truck work.

I waited for Benny here to find the Tremor spring part numbers, but like a lot of Tremor specific parts he never could.

When the Icons were released, I was relieved. As I figured Ford would want just as much for the Tremor springs. And the Icons had a lot more versatility.

I was planning on an Icon Stage 1 Package and their leafs as I'm a firm believer in matching suspension components when I can..

But I jumped on the Global Ranger leafs (Tremor leafs for all intents and purposes) and paired them with the Fox 2.0 Package. I settled in at 2" up front and about â…ť" rear. Perfect for my skinny 33"s.

For your desires I think the Icons and Deavers are your only option. Icons are a bit cheaper and more versatile. I would consider matching them with Icon shocks and front coils as well.

If I didn’t have frenchy blocked I’m sure he would recommend OME. They are an option also but I think they are more focused on towing.

I only consider them an option if you're not going to match them with the OME shocks. I wouldn't ever purposefully put dualtube shocks on a vehicle.

At roughly the same price as Icons, the Icons seem to be a no-brainer.
