Icon or Fabtech

What do you guys think is best for my 2002 4 door tacoma 4x4? I have a choice of Icon setup or a Fabtech setup. They would both include the rear progressive add a leaf kit. But as far as coilovers which is the better of the two?

Don't know, never heard of the Icon shocks. fabtech was last i heard made by FOX, rubber bushing on the bottom. Check out swayaway, or King, donahoe racing if you want C/O's. Deavers for the rear, judging from CA, you want desert type stuff. if not there is other lift kits that are prob some cheaper.

Sway a ways are the only way to go. Dont waste your money on anything but the 2.5's. Here is what I do with my 2.5 SAW CO's and then drive home over 200 miles...
