ICON’s extensive testing ensures that every component works harmoniously to deliver consistent performance and reliability.

Key Features:

The ICON Stage 5 Suspension System integrates cutting-edge components and design elements to optimize your Dodge Ram’s suspension performance:

• 4.5-inch lift height for increased ground clearance and aggressive stance
• Dual rate coil springs for improved ride quality and load handling
• Tubular steel upper and lower link arms to enhance strength and alignment range
• Polyurethane bump stops with billet extensions for superior durability and travel control
• Sway bar drop brackets to maintain proper sway bar geometry after lift
• Forged pitman arm for improved steering response and durability
• Adjustable bearing-style track bar with drop bracket for precise axle centering
• ICON 2.5 Aluminum Series shocks with Compression Damping Control Valve (CDCV) for tunable, consistent damping performance
• Rear 2.5-inch lift blocks to complement front suspension lift
• Heavy-duty FK bearings and 7/8-inch shock shafts for enhanced strength and longevity

Construction & Design:

Every component in the Stage 5 Suspension System is crafted from premium materials to ensure maximum strength and durability. The tubular steel link arms replace factory bushings with robust joints that reduce bind and increase articulation, improving both off-road capability and on-road handling. The aluminum-bodied shocks feature one-piece impact-extruded cylinders and FK bearings, delivering long-lasting performance and resistance to wear under demanding conditions.

ICON’s engineering focus on maintaining proper steering geometry throughout the suspension travel range results in improved steering feel and vehicle control. The inclusion of sway bar drop brackets and a forged pitman arm further enhances steering precision and stability, making this system a comprehensive upgrade for lifted Dodge Ram trucks.
