Construction & Design:

The ICON 2.0 Series shocks feature a robust construction using aerospace-grade aluminum alloys, including 6063 anodized aluminum for the shock body and reservoir tubing. This material choice provides superior heat dissipation, preventing shock fade during demanding driving conditions, while also offering excellent corrosion resistance to extend product life. The internal components, crafted from 6061 aluminum, ensure structural integrity and durability under heavy loads.

The shocks utilize a one-piece linear/digressive piston design with valving specifically tuned for Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models, delivering a smooth yet controlled ride. The chrome-plated hardened steel shaft resists corrosion and pitting, maintaining consistent performance over time. Additionally, polyurethane bushings and forged steel mounting stems replicate OEM fitment, ensuring a straightforward installation and reliable operation.
