see… first time you’ve seen anyone post about the deavers and and explaining how they get more travel but yet you try to state “facts” on shit you know nothing about! Why do you do that? Spreading misinformation about other types of suspensions you’ve never ran before or seen in person…. Just look at his first pic of the stock leaf and deaver side by side. You can see the difference in thickness between the stock mono lower and the deaver and can tell the deaver uses a thinner leaf. Where as earlier you stated they are the same thickness

Why, you might ask?
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Because it's Frenchy. He is enamored with all things ARB. So much so that he continues to stalk a forum for a truck he totaled months ago trying to sell their wares.

That means he blocked you.
If you want to keep up with his bullshit you'll have to log out.
Don't worry he blocked me too. Apparently it's that time of the month

Here's a question. Did you have to mess with the oem sway bar links? I was told by a dealer (months later after they installed) that I needed to have extended sway bar links for Ford/Fox kit set at 2 inches. Links that they couldn't find and that I would have to provide....In general I got the entire lift kit. From stock it lifted the front 2.4 inches and the rear 1.6 inches. Old Man EMU is the only one at this time that I am aware of that offers a leaf that will increase travel while maintaining or add ins some load capacity to the rear(more of how much you can carry while maintaining lift). Towing is no problem at all. With the right toung load The truck will sit level. The ride quality was night and day. Control OffRoad was great. I actually had more articulation vs those who chose a leveling kit or lift with blocks. I already plan to go with the same brand on my 1993 Pathfinder.
Icon may improve ride, but it lowers load capacity of the truck. With its highest load setting it has a lower load limit then the basic Old Man EMU leaf. They even claim its ok to go to the lowest setting. Well if you plan to tow you don't want to do that as the rear will squat bad!! Oh and the Icon Leaf does not add any lift until you put it in the highest load form.
Deaver leafs. An interesting topic. To start these leafs will not increase your travel. They actually take away travel in the rear. How is that you ask? Simple, its due to the amount of Leafs in one Leaf Pack. The OEM leaf packs have 2 leafs. The Deavers have 10 per pack. One leaf is about 1/8th thick. So OEM is 1/4 and Deaver is 1 1/4 thick. That said if you go through APG they will give you a shorter bump stop to help with this. How much shorter is it you ask? No idea but if someone on here was kind enough to share that would be nice. Also what suprised me the most is how the leaf provides a comfortable ride. Why am I suprised? Simply due to how many leafs are in one Leaf Pack. Normally you would not see that except on a heavy duty vehicle, so I still have a hard time wrapping my head around it.
That is my input on the 3 and hope that helps.
Pictures include 32 and 33 inch tires installed along with Towing 5,500 LBS with no air springs of sorts
Really like the look of your truck with the OME kit and the comparison between the 2 size tires.

Never had a problem with the sway bar at all with my lift kit that was installed. Mind you it lifted the front by 2.4 in

Sway bar endlinks are not needed for 2" of lift up front.
Here are the directions for the FP Fox kit. Straight from Ford.

I couldn't get my end links to bolt to the knuckle when I installed the Eibach. I ended up taking my sway bar off.
