Just added an ICON Stage 10 CDEV Suspension system (R&D Kit) to our Lexus GX550 Atomic Silver. Also slapped on a set of ICON ALLOYS Recon Pros and a set of 34" Falken Wildpeak R/T 01 HDs. Just the beginning of this build

Updates? Does this suspension ride more soft than oem? (oem is already too soft imo)

It’s stiffer in general I think, but has levels of adjustment. We’ve dialed it in to our preference. We soften it up for the dirt. It’s also got a tow mode to stiffen the rear for towing.

Like your build, I went with Wescott, may go up more after more trail testing.

I'm surprised the rear sags that much with just that little trailer. What's the tongue weight?

thank you for posting the pictures… What front bumper did you go with?

The Icon lift is a leveling lift, so any trailer is going to weigh it down. Stock GX 550 has a rake built in, so when you tow, it levels out.

Tongue weight for this camper is about 350lbs. We’re going to go back for stiffer springs in the rear as our new trailer (not pictured) has a 500lb tongue weight.

Maybe Eibach will make the load leveling rear coil system they made for the 4Runner and make our lives easier.

Just dropped our GX550 off at Dissent Offroad for a ‘mild’ transformation. Can’t wait to see the final result
