We can sell you the system with only the pieces you need (i.e. BDS 4-link, Icon coils, and Bilstein/Icon shocks) and work with you on the shipping.

Overkill, work me out a deal on the BDS 4-link with the icon springs and shocks. You can email me a quote, including the shipping and email to scott (at) gutauckis.com

Now this sounds like a cool way to go. But, would it be possible
to do it this way:

7" Icon coils and shocks with a 6" BDS standard drop bracket kit,
and a Rise 6" Block and 2" mini spring pack in the rear? Would
that give a level stance? What else would be needed to make it
work ... adjustable track bar? Alignment cams?

Gutauckis, did you ever do this with the BDS 4 link kit?

In order to work with the 6speed?

Yes would could do BDS or CST radius arm brackets with the Icon 7" kit.

Thanks for the info on this. Yep, it's for a 6 speed. What I'm
curious about here is if I put all BDS 6" parts up front along with the
Icon 7" coils and shocks, would I need any thing else ... like
the Icon alignment cams or adjustable track bar?

Personally, I'd do the 7" Icon system minus the radius arm brackets and go with either the BDS, CST or Modded Icon brackets.

Icon system comes with the cams.
While an adjustable trac bar isn't necessary, it is a nice upgrade and assures that the front axle is centered under the truck.

Ok. Thanks for all the info that you guys at Truck Toyz provide!

I don't really like the idea of modifying the Icon brackets for
some reason. I think the CST brackets are from a 4.5" kit
for the 08. So, I guess the BDS 6" drop brackets are the
best choice? As soon as I get this all sorted out in my head ( ),
I'm going to give you guys an order call ...

FWIW, Icon uses the same radius arm bracket with the 4.5" as the 7".
Difference is that the 7" also uses the caster cams vs. the 4.5" that keeps the stock cams.

Excellent! Now I've got a plan of attack
