[QUOTE="Chris, post: 430714, member: 1"] The amount of work needed to run a good coilover (i.e. Fox or King) is going to require so much labor and money that you better be in this for the long haul. If you are going to run 40s, your Dana 44s aren't up to the task.You're going to need Dana 60s, a custom coilover setup, outboard rear shocks, and A LOT of fucking money. That kit is not one I would consider personally. If I was going to do what you're describing, I would go with a GenRight setup as the build some very top notch stuff. I'd pair that with either some Fox or King coilovers and some RockJock 60 axles. You're going to need upwards of 40k or more to do this right, but I'm sure you know that ;) I wouldn't waste any money on that ICON kit for stock axles since all that stuff would need to be changed out for 40s anyways, so it's a waste of time and money.
