My question to you is what is your overall plan with the truck?

In general I will say dont waist your money on ICON. For the price you pay and the lack of quality you get its not worth it. Fox obviously makes good stuff. Only down side is Fox states that with 50/50 On OffRoad use the shocks need to be rebuilt. In my opinion its not worth it if you have to keep swaping shocks on a daily.

If you are trying to stick to touring/overlanding type wheeling then you might want to take a peak at Old Man EMU. They have the BP-51's wich run close to what you are willing to spend already and are nicely made. I wish they were available for my Pathfinder. A few users on here have them and like them. I myself rand the basic Nitrocharger set. The extra height was nice and ride was good but the BP-51's will provide way more ride quality and adjustability. Last but not least the front will be up from stock(not counting tires) 2.4 inches front and 1.6 inches rear. You will also be able to to get the alignment back into specifications.

I'm running the equivalent of the ICON Stage 8 or King mid-runner kit, APG billet UCA's, with addition of APG billet tie rod ends..

I recommend getting the adjustable valve ICON 2.5's, ...It all depends on your needs....I like the digressive valving of the ICONS for the flatter cornering on road handling ( I live in the twisty road area of the Ozarks) plus the faster you drive the smoother it gets off road ( for my twice a year SoCal desert bombing runs )... The ability to adjust dampening makes for a more comfortable every day driving experience.

I have no complaints with ICON's quality of their top shelf components
