Overview:

The ICON Tubular Upper Control Arm Delta Joint Kit is engineered to enhance the suspension performance and durability of Dodge Ram 1500 models from 2009 through 2023, including the Ram 1500 Classic from 2019 to 2023. Designed for enthusiasts who demand superior articulation and long-lasting reliability, these upper control arms incorporate ICON’s patented Delta Joint technology. This kit is ideal for daily drivers and off-road adventurers alike, providing improved suspension geometry and enhanced caster correction for better handling and tire wear.

By combining the robustness of a traditional ball joint with the articulation benefits of a uniball, the Delta Joint Kit offers a unique solution that withstands harsh conditions while maintaining smooth, noise-free operation. Whether upgrading for larger tires or improving suspension articulation, this kit delivers dependable performance and longevity.

Key Features:

ICON’s Tubular Upper Control Arm Kit is packed with advanced features designed to optimize suspension function and durability:

• Patented Delta Joint: Heavy-duty, high-angle ball joint combining durability and articulation
• Zinc-plated housing for superior corrosion resistance
• Tough grease seal to protect internal components from dirt and moisture
• Metal-on-metal construction with greasable design for extended service life
• CNC machined bushing housings and sleeves for precise fitment
• Serviceable dual-stage bushings to reduce noise and vibration
• 1026 DOM steel tubular construction for strength and rigidity
• Built-in caster correction to improve steering geometry and tire wear
• Black semi-gloss powder coat finish for lasting corrosion protection and aesthetics
• Compatible with recommended aftermarket tires up to 33" x 11.50"

Construction & Design:

Crafted from high-strength 1026 DOM steel, the ICON upper control arms feature CNC bent tubing that ensures precise geometry and durability under demanding conditions. The Delta Joint’s zinc-plated housing and robust grease seal provide a critical barrier against corrosion and contaminants, extending the life of the joint far beyond standard uniball designs. The metal-on-metal construction paired with a greasable design allows for maintenance and noise-free operation, making it suitable for both daily driving and off-road use.

The dual-stage bushings are engineered to absorb vibrations and reduce noise, enhancing ride quality without sacrificing suspension articulation. The black semi-gloss powder coat finish not only protects against rust but also adds a sleek, professional appearance to the suspension components.

Installation & Fitment:

This kit is designed as a direct fit replacement for a wide range of Dodge Ram 1500 models from 2009 to 2023, including the Ram 1500 Classic from 2019 to 2023. Installation requires standard suspension tools and moderate mechanical experience. While the kit supports larger tires up to 33" x 11.50" without modifications, fitting larger tires may require fender trimming or additional suspension adjustments. The built-in caster correction simplifies alignment and improves overall handling characteristics.

What's Included:

• Pair of ICON Tubular Upper Control Arms with Delta Joints
• CNC machined bushing housings and sleeves
• Grease fittings for serviceable joints
• Installation hardware and instructions
