Construction & Design:
Constructed from premium 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum, the ICON 2.5 Series Rear Shocks feature CNC-machined components that ensure precise tolerances and exceptional durability. The one-piece impact extruded aluminum cylinders resist corrosion and maintain a consistent finish even in harsh environments. The piggyback reservoir design improves heat dissipation, preventing shock fade during prolonged off-road or heavy-duty use. The shock shaft is induction hardened and chrome plated, providing superior wear resistance and smooth operation. ICON’s innovative internal “Bump Zone” technology adds an extra layer of damping control, enhancing suspension performance during high-velocity compression events.
Installation & Fitment:
These shocks are designed as direct replacements for the rear suspension of Dodge Ram 1500 models from 2009 to 2018 and Ram 1500 Classic models from 2019 to 2022. Installation requires no major modifications, utilizing application-specific mounting hardware and PTFE-lined spherical bearings for a precise fit. The shocks accommodate 0-3" lift setups, making them ideal for lifted trucks while maintaining factory ride height compatibility. Professional installation is recommended to ensure optimal performance and safety.
What's Included:
