Love this vid! So well filmed and learned a lot about suspension in general as well as the specifics of this install. Also enjoyed the bit on the approaching storm. That was a nice aesthetic touch!
Pretty cool that it is remotely adjustable. Don’t know if I am a fan of having to rely on my phone. Plus I am a person who doesn’t like a bunch of apps on my phone.
Love the build, maybe do a walkaround one day? Can you touch on the rear lights? Are they standalone or did you wire them in to the taillights? Also, do you have them set up for area lighting or just chase lights? I don't have a rear bumper either and was thinking about mounting flush lights so seeing their position on yours was perfect.
Similar concept to Lexus AVS and their adjustable shocks - see GX460 Luxury. This take that up several notches!! Unfortunately for me, ICON brand is a no go.
I also have KDSS on my 2020. Can you go into the front sway bar LCA brackets/bushings and comment on their alignment? I have the ICON Stage 7 set up on mine and since the install my sway bar is no longer aligned and causes the bushings to pinch. ICON hasn’t offered me a solution yet after contacting them. DrKDSS has come out with on offset bracket for this along with drop spacers and a track bar kit to set the KDSS back to normal OEM angles with a suspension lift. Any help will be greatly appreciated!, Love the Shop Talk episodes.
wow, for 2014, she looks good, I have a 2016 4runner trail with kdss, and she too is very well looked after. How much of a lift does that setup give you? Would like to invest in that system, but I do have a height restriction. Currently, I have had mine leveled out with the bilstein 5100 upfront and ibach adjustable springs in the rear, which just about gives me enough room. Thanks for your imput, and keep up the great work. Be safe out there.
Tanner, which model Odyssey AGM battery are you running and what are you doing under the hood in order for the 4runner’s alternator to adequately charge the AGM? Thanks
Running the Group 31M and a voltage booster fuse that replaces the 7.5A alternator fuse. Works great to boost the voltage to the right voltage. Also have a solar panel on top that is wired strait to the battery as well.
i wouldn’t recommend icon to anyone i know. hence why nobody i know owns icon. local shops have piles of them for rebuild. its like people who promote crapagonia tires. lol. buy ads or radflo and be way better off.
When Tanner snapped his fingers and nothing happened!! 🤣🤣
It was worth a shot. 😂😂
I am just impressed by your technical abilities, love these types of videos!
absolutely love you guys, and Tanner is the man!! take alot of inspiration for the video work I do from you guys! big thanks
Thank you so much! We work hard to make these videos for you guys to hopefully educate and inspire everyone!
@@Tanner_Johnson one day! Mark my words! I’ll join you guys!
Awesome video as always XO Crew.
Thank you 🤗
This is pretty cool. Finally got myself a 4Runner TRD off road premium and have been looking into a new suspension. Cool shop talk video.
Love the intro instrumental, VIBEY 🕺😎👍

Looking forward to seeing your review on these shocks.
Very nice 4Runner!
Love that wishful magic snap, Tanner 😂
Great job Tanner! looks good!
Awesome, I enjoyed watching. Always do.
Great video😊, thanks.
Noticed you're not running a pan hard bar correction kit for the lift, any reason for this?
💯👍Yeah - it looks to be at an angle in the Video - should be horizontal!!

Can you comment on the ride quality with the new setup? I have KDSS as well, and I find it to ride pretty harsh over uneven/bumpy pavement.
Hell yeah KDSS ganggg

They are wired separately to my Switch-Pro for chase lights or can strobe in an emergency situation
And thank you. We will probably shoot some sort of walk around soon.

How many miles and any problems with the rig thanks
Anyone know what "stage" the shocks are?
Do you guys find that digressive valving works better for your endeavors than linear or progressive valving?
I wanted to put the CDEV on my 200 series but Icon doesn’t make it for the LC.

Tanner takes good care of her!
How much lift with set up?
Those weren’t Pro shocks on the front, Fox makes those. You removed Bilstein. You’ll see the TRD red for the springs on all Pro models.

@@Tanner_Johnson Thanks.
How big of a lift can you usually go before needing longer brake lines?
Depends on the vehicle! Most start needing it at around 2-3"
@@ExpeditionOverland how much is this kit $ ?
ICON lost me with the uniballs on the joints.
Great for race trucks, don’t last in an everyday rig.
Keep an eye on them Tanner!
You’ll hear ‘em.
Yeah and their recommendation for rebuild is every 10k last I saw... so every other oil change you need to send them out for rebuild!?
Icon is complete junk as I would only use King shocks which are handsdown the Best on the market for many of reasons
i wouldn’t recommend icon to anyone i know. hence why nobody i know owns icon. local shops have piles of them for rebuild. its like people who promote crapagonia tires. lol. buy ads or radflo and be way better off.
First! Mwahahaha
I love how lazy people are…. Cdev…. So u don’t need to get out of the truck for 30 seconds and twist a knob…
And more wires, more connectors - more points of possible failures
