Lowering kits - 2025 options?

What’s the rough cost of having the Icon kit installed and lowered/leveled?

That completely depends on your shop. I got charged $800 for the whole thing.

I thought the parts alone were way over 800. Maybe I am looking at the wrong thing.

For the Icon Stage 4 kit, my local shop estimated ~7h of work including alignment. How much money that works out to depends on the going rate in your locale ... around here (Vancouver, Canada) it's about 140 CAD (100 USD) per hour.

The Icon Stage 4 Kit is $6000+

I used these to lower just the rear of my 22 lightning a couple of years ago. No issues at all. Lowered it about 1.5” or so.

Front strut parts fit the rear struts on our trucks?

Yes, and I’m pretty sure I have a post about them in a thread on here. They will work.

Can you share some pics of the stance? No issues with stability control, blue cruise, etc?

Rough Country makes a similar kit that also includes 3/4" front spacers:

Could you post a picture of these installed? What are they made of? What holds them in place?

I can confirm the McGaughys drop pockets (70005) work on the rear of a 2024 Flash to lower it about 1.5 inches. The rear end of my truck is not as stable/sorted at some of my highway cruising speeds in this thing now.... I need to figure out a stiffer strut now and wouldn't mind lowering the front about .5 inches to sort out a little bit of front end 'wandering'..... I was thinking about putting the Eibach shocks in the rear but they state they are for a 0-1inch lift and I thought I saw someone mention they really stiffened it up. I'll try to get a pick of my truck parked level later on to post and show the updated stance.

I did airbags to have the most extreme adjustability while maintaining maximum load carrying and towing capabilities.

airbags

Great mod, colour scheme is brutal though.
Also, are those all terrain tires?

So I have a 2024. Icon CS told me the lowering kit is for 22 and 23 only. Anyone either 24 or 25 have the full icon kit? Also do the electronics tie into the truck at all or is it all standalone/isolsted?

I hummed and hawed for a few months and I'm going Eibach coils with stock shocks (for now - only 30,000 miles on them) with the Icon camber kit.

I found the stock shocks to be lacking. Too bouncy and floaty. Replaced with Eibach front and rear. Put rough country lowering flanges on the rear. Big improvement in ride due to shocks. Maybe 1.5 inches lower in the rear. Looks better. Only 20k on the shocks if anyone needs/wants some stock ones.

I'm in the same boat. I have a 2024 and ordered the Eibach Pro-Kit. Talked with someone at ICON and was told (twice) that their 92003 camber kit won't work with the 2024 or 2025 models. Any suggestions?
