Key Features:

This Stage 3 Suspension System combines advanced engineering with high-quality components to optimize your truck’s suspension performance:

• 4.5" lift height for increased ground clearance and tire clearance
• Dual rate coil springs for improved ride quality and load handling
• Tubular steel upper and lower link arms with billet construction for enhanced strength and reduced bushing bind
• Polyurethane bump stops with billet extensions to protect suspension travel
• Sway bar drop brackets and track bar drop bracket to maintain proper steering geometry
• Forged pitman arm for improved steering response and durability
• ICON 2.5" V.S. Series shocks featuring FK bearings, billet top caps and rod ends, 7/8" shafts, and forged stems for consistent damping performance

Construction & Design:

Every component in the ICON Stage 3 Suspension System is crafted with durability and performance in mind. The tubular steel upper and lower link arms are forged and billet-machined to provide superior strength and reduce the binding commonly found in factory bushings. The polyurethane bump stops with billet extensions protect suspension components during full travel, while the forged pitman arm enhances steering precision and longevity.

ICON’s 2.5" V.S. Series shocks are engineered for consistent damping across all driving conditions. Featuring FK bearings and forged stems with rolled threads, these shocks offer increased strength and reliability compared to standard aftermarket options. The combination of these high-quality materials and precision engineering ensures the suspension system withstands demanding off-road use while maintaining a smooth on-road ride.
