Ram 2500 14-18 6.7L Diesel/6.4L/5.7L

217707P

Overview:

The ICON 2.5 Series Standard Rear Shocks are engineered specifically for the Ram 2500 models from 2014 to 2018, delivering exceptional off-road capability while maintaining a smooth and controlled ride on paved roads. Designed with vehicle-specific valving and length, these shocks optimize suspension performance to handle the demands of lifted trucks and heavy-duty applications. Whether tackling rugged trails or cruising on the highway, ICON’s 2.5 Series shocks provide consistent damping and superior control to enhance your driving experience.

Built for enthusiasts who demand durability and precision, these shocks are fully rebuildable and revalveable, allowing for long-term maintenance and tuning to match your driving style and terrain. The innovative internal “Bump Zone” technology adds extra damping force to prevent harsh bottom-outs, ensuring your suspension remains composed during aggressive compression events.

Key Features:

ICON’s 2.5 Series Rear Shocks incorporate advanced engineering and premium materials to deliver reliable performance and longevity. Key features include:

• One-piece digressive piston design with vehicle-specific valving for optimized ride quality and control
• Internal “Bump Zone” that increases damping force by 20% to reduce harsh bottom-outs and improve suspension control
• One-piece impact extruded aluminum cylinders for excellent corrosion resistance and a consistent finish
• Premium grade 5WT shock oil ensuring consistent damping across a wide temperature range
• Remote piggyback reservoir design for improved heat dissipation and reduced shock fade during extended 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 smooth operation
• Nitrogen charged monotube design with piggyback reservoir for consistent performance under demanding conditions
• 6061 aircraft grade aluminum CNC machined components for lightweight strength and precision
• 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable for long-term serviceability and tuning flexibility

Construction & Design:

Each ICON 2.5 Series shock is crafted from high-quality materials engineered to withstand the rigors of off-road use and heavy-duty applications. The shock body is made from impact extruded aluminum, providing excellent corrosion resistance and a durable finish that holds up in harsh environments. The shock shaft is induction hardened and chrome plated to resist wear and ensure smooth piston movement.

ICON’s unique use of a 6061 billet aluminum manifold positioned just below the top cap creates an internal “Bump Zone,” which adds an additional 20% damping force during high-velocity compression. This innovative design helps control suspension travel and prevents harsh bottoming out, enhancing both ride comfort and vehicle control.

Installation & Fitment:

These shocks are designed as direct replacements for the rear suspension of Ram 2500 trucks from 2014 through 2018, 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 intended for use with a 2-inch lift and require no additional modifications for installation, making them a straightforward upgrade for lifted Ram 2500 owners seeking improved suspension performance.

What's Included:

• Pair of ICON 2.5 Series Standard Rear Shocks with piggyback reservoirs
• Application-specific mounting hardware
• PTFE lined spherical bearings installed

Ideal For:

These shocks are ideal for Ram 2500 owners who have installed a 2-inch suspension lift and want to enhance their truck’s off-road capability without sacrificing on-road comfort. They are perfect for enthusiasts who demand durable, high-performance components that can be tuned and rebuilt over time to suit changing driving conditions and preferences. Whether you’re navigating rough trails, hauling heavy loads, or cruising highways, ICON’s 2.5 Series shocks provide the control and reliability needed for serious performance.

ICON Vehicle Dynamics builds performance suspension components for trucks and SUVs—think coilovers, shocks, lift/leveling systems, and supporting hardware engineered for hard off-road use. Their setups are designed to improve control, ride quality, and durability when you’re pushing faster over rough terrain or building a capable overland/trail rig.
