    Does anyone run the Icon Stage 1 lift? Seeing as it is adjustable, what height is most ideal for 285/70/17 KO2s?

    You could run the 285’s with 1” of lift with proper wheel specs. You going to use stock wheels?
    The wheel is more important than lift height for fitment.

    For the moment, Yes stock wheels Till the Method 701’s with a 0 offset come in. They are a 17x8.5 rim. The concern is that the rear spring from the kit gives around 2” of rear lift (from what I’ve read) and I don’t want a huge rake. You don’t think just 1” of lift in the front would give it that rake? I want it to sit level.

    If you want to be level, with that kit you’ll need to go 3” in the front and 2” in the rear. That’s my setup, and you can reference in my profile picture. Count on needing upper control arms at 3” in the front though.

    That wheel should be fine, might just rub slightly on the cab mount with 285’s.

    Ok awesome, your rig in your profile picture is exactly the setup I’m going for. That’s super rad. Yup got new UCAs being installed as well. I figure I may need to do a bit of trimming but I’m hoping to not have to do a full on BMC.

    With your wheel setup you might not need to! Post pics when it’s all installed!
    I do have 295’s, so the 285’s will be about .5” smaller.
