217706P

Overview:

The ICON Performance 2.5 Series Rear Shocks are engineered to deliver exceptional off-road capability and a refined on-road driving experience for your Ram 2500. Designed specifically for 2014 to 2018 models, these shocks provide a perfect balance of durability, performance, and comfort. Whether you’re tackling rugged trails or cruising city streets, ICON’s 2.5 Aluminum Series shocks enhance suspension control and ride quality, making them an ideal upgrade for Ram 2500 owners seeking improved handling and reliability.

Built with application-specific valving and length, these shocks are tailored to the unique demands of the Ram 2500’s rear suspension, especially when paired with a 2-inch lift. ICON’s commitment to quality and performance ensures that these shocks maintain consistent damping and superior control under a variety of driving conditions.

Key Features:

ICON’s 2.5 Series Rear Shocks incorporate advanced technology and premium materials to optimize your vehicle’s suspension performance. Key features include:

• One-piece digressive piston design with vehicle-specific valving for superior ride quality on and off-road
• Internal “Bump Zone” created by a 6061 billet aluminum manifold increases damping force by 20% to prevent harsh bottom-outs
• One-piece impact extruded aluminum cylinders for reduced weight, enhanced corrosion resistance, and a uniform finish
• Premium grade 5WT shock oil ensures consistent damping across a wide temperature range
• Remote piggyback reservoir design improves heat dissipation and reduces shock fade during prolonged use
• PTFE-lined spherical bearings and application-specific mounting hardware for precise fitment and durability
• 7/8” diameter induction hardened, chrome-plated shock shaft for strength and longevity
• Nitrogen charged monotube design with piggyback reservoir for consistent performance
• 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum CNC machined components for superior build quality
• Double-sealed Schrader caps to reduce risk of damage and contamination
• 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable for long-term serviceability and tuning flexibility

Construction & Design:

ICON’s 2.5 Series Rear Shocks are crafted from high-grade materials engineered for durability and performance. The one-piece impact extruded aluminum cylinders provide a lightweight yet robust housing that resists corrosion better than traditional steel. The use of 6061 billet aluminum in the internal manifold enhances structural integrity and creates the innovative Bump Zone, which increases damping force as the shock nears full compression.

The shock shaft is induction hardened and chrome plated to withstand harsh conditions and extend service life. The monotube design, combined with a remote piggyback reservoir, optimizes heat dissipation to maintain consistent damping during intense off-road use or heavy towing. PTFE-lined spherical bearings and precision CNC-machined components ensure smooth operation and precise fitment tailored to the Ram 2500’s rear suspension geometry.

Installation & Fitment:

These ICON 2.5 Series Rear Shocks are designed for direct fitment on 2014 to 2018 Ram 2500 models, including Big Horn, Laramie, Laramie Limited (2014–2015), Laramie Longhorn, Limited (2016–2018), Lone Star (2014–2015), Outdoorsman (2014–2016), Power Wagon, SLT, and Tradesman trims. They are optimized for vehicles with a 2-inch lift, providing enhanced suspension travel and control.

Installation is straightforward with application-specific mounting hardware included. No major modifications are required, making these shocks a practical upgrade for owners looking to improve rear suspension performance and ride quality.

What's Included:

• Pair of ICON Performance 2.5 Series Rear Shocks with piggyback reservoirs
• Application-specific mounting hardware
