Overview:

The ICON 2.5 Series Rear Shocks are precision-engineered performance shocks designed specifically for the 2019 to 2023 Ram 1500 lineup. Built to enhance both off-road capability and on-road comfort, these shocks deliver a smooth, controlled ride regardless of terrain. Whether you’re tackling rugged trails or cruising city streets, ICON’s application-specific valving and advanced damping technology provide superior suspension control and improved vehicle handling.

Ideal for Ram 1500 owners seeking a durable upgrade that balances performance and comfort, these shocks accommodate up to 2.5 inches of rear lift, making them perfect for lifted trucks without sacrificing ride quality or stability.

Key Features:

Designed with cutting-edge technology and premium materials, the ICON 2.5 Series Rear Shocks offer the following benefits:

• One-piece digressive piston design with vehicle-specific valving for optimized ride quality on and off-road
• ICON’s patented internal “Bump Zone” increases damping force by 20% near full compression to prevent harsh bottom outs
• Externally adjustable CDC Valve provides 10 levels of compression damping for fine-tuning suspension performance
• One-piece impact extruded aluminum cylinders for superior corrosion resistance and a consistent finish
• Piggyback reservoir design enhances heat dissipation to reduce shock fade during extended use
• Premium grade 5WT shock oil ensures consistent damping across a wide temperature range
• PTFE-lined spherical bearings and application-specific mounting hardware for durability and precise fitment
• 7/8” diameter induction hardened, chrome-plated shock shaft for strength and longevity
• Nitrogen-charged monotube design with piggyback reservoir for improved performance and reliability
• 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum CNC-machined components for lightweight strength
• Double-sealed Schrader caps reduce risk of damage and extend service life
• 100% rebuildable and revalveable for long-term maintenance and customization

Construction & Design:

ICON’s 2.5 Series shocks feature one-piece impact extruded aluminum cylinders that offer a lighter weight alternative to traditional steel while delivering enhanced corrosion resistance and a uniform finish. The use of 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum CNC-machined components ensures exceptional strength and durability without adding unnecessary mass.

The shocks incorporate a piggyback reservoir design that improves heat dissipation, reducing shock fade during prolonged off-road or heavy-duty use. The 7/8” induction hardened, chrome-plated shock shaft provides robust resistance to wear and bending, while PTFE-lined spherical bearings ensure smooth articulation and long-lasting performance.

Installation & Fitment:

These ICON 2.5 Series Rear Shocks are designed as direct replacements for the rear suspension on 2019–2023 Ram 1500 models, including Big Horn, HFE, Laramie, Laramie Longhorn (2019–2021), Limited, Limited Longhorn (2021–2023), Lone Star, Longhorn (2021), Rebel, Special Service (2020–2021), and Tradesman trims.
