• Polyurethane bushings and zinc-plated sleeves for durable, factory-style mounting
• Forged steel mounting stems and 6061 aluminum rod ends and top caps for enhanced strength and longevity
• 5/8” chrome-plated hardened steel shaft that resists corrosion and pitting
• Nitrogen-charged monotube construction for consistent damping performance
• Nitrile rubber top-out bumper for quiet, smooth operation
• 100% rebuildable and revalveable for tailored tuning and extended service life
• Application-specific reservoir mounting hardware included for precise fitment

Construction & Design:

The ICON 2.0 Series Rear Shock is crafted from premium-grade materials to ensure durability and high performance. The anodized 6063 aluminum body and reservoir tubing provide excellent heat dissipation, preventing shock fade during intense driving conditions while offering superior corrosion resistance for long-lasting use. The internal components, including the 6061 aluminum rod end and top cap, are engineered for strength and reliability under demanding off-road and street driving scenarios.

The monotube design, charged with nitrogen, maintains consistent damping characteristics by minimizing cavitation and heat buildup. The one-piece piston with vehicle-specific valving delivers a finely tuned balance of linear and digressive damping, enhancing both comfort and control. Additionally, the polyurethane bushings and zinc-plated sleeves ensure a secure, noise-free mounting that replicates factory fitment standards.

Installation & Fitment:

These shocks are designed for direct bolt-on installation on Jeep Wrangler JK models from 2007 through 2018, including various trims such as Rubicon, Sahara, Sport, and Unlimited versions. No modifications are required, and the included application-specific reservoir mounting hardware ensures a precise and secure fit. Installation can typically be completed with standard hand tools and basic mechanical knowledge, making it accessible for both professional installers and experienced enthusiasts.

What's Included:

• One ICON 2.0 Series Aluminum Rear Shock absorber with remote reservoir
• Application-specific reservoir mounting hardware
• Polyurethane bushings and zinc-plated sleeves installed
• Installation instructions

Ideal For:

The ICON 2.0 Series Aluminum Rear Shock is ideal for Jeep Wrangler JK owners seeking a reliable and durable suspension upgrade that enhances both daily driving comfort and off-road performance. Whether you are an everyday commuter, weekend trail rider, or light off-road enthusiast, these shocks provide improved handling, reduced shock fade, and a smoother ride without the expense or complexity of higher-end models.

For those who require even greater durability and performance in extreme off-road conditions, ICON recommends considering their 2.5 Series shocks designed to handle more severe abuse and suspension demands.

ICON Vehicle Dynamics builds performance suspension components for trucks and SUVs—think coilovers, shocks, lift/leveling systems, and supporting hardware engineered for hard off-road use. Their setups are designed to improve control, ride quality, and durability when you’re pushing faster over rough terrain or building a capable overland/trail rig.
